NTTA Toll Rates to Increase July 1 

Beginning July 1, The North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) will increase toll rates by an average of 1 cent per mile, implementing its regular, biennial toll rate schedule. TollTag rates will increase from 20 to 21 cents; ZipCash (pay-by-mail) rates will now be double the TollTag rate (previously, the ZipCash rate was 50 percent more than the TollTag rate). In addition, NTTA will launch a pilot program July 1 that offers a $10 prepaid TollTag account for drivers in addition to the $20 and $40 prepaid accounts previously offered. 

NTTA announced in a recent press release that increasing the ZipCash toll rate helps promote fairness among toll road drivers and offsets the rising cost to collect tolls and the risk associated with the uncertainty of receiving payment from ZipCash users who choose not to have a TollTag.  

Since NTTA does not receive tax funding, only drivers who choose to use NTTA toll roads provide funding for them. Tolls also fund NTTA’s safety and roadside service programs and road maintenance.
