How to Calculate New Jersey Turnpike Toll Rates
The New Jersey Turnpike (NJT) is one of the busiest toll roads in the United States, stretching from the Delaware Memorial Bridge in the south to the George Washington Bridge in the north. Unlike flat-rate toll roads, the NJ Turnpike uses a ticket-based system (or entry/exit recording via E-ZPass) where your total cost depends on how far you travel and what type of vehicle you are driving.
Factors Influencing Your Toll Cost
- Entry and Exit Points: The NJ Turnpike is divided into numbered interchanges. The further the distance between your entry and exit points, the higher the toll.
- Vehicle Classification: Tolls are categorized by vehicle size and number of axles. A standard passenger car (Class 1) pays significantly less than a 5-axle commercial tractor-trailer (Class 5).
- Payment Method: Drivers using E-ZPass typically receive a discount compared to those paying via Cash or Toll-by-Plate. Furthermore, E-ZPass users may benefit from "Off-Peak" pricing during specific hours.
NJ Turnpike Vehicle Classes Explained
| Class | Description | Common Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | 2-Axle Passenger | Sedans, SUVs, Pickup Trucks, Motorcycles |
| Class 2 | 2-Axle Dual Rear Wheels | Delivery Vans, Larger Pickup Trucks (Dualies) |
| Class 3-6 | Multi-Axle Commercial | Buses, Box Trucks, Semi-Trailers |
Example Calculations (Class 1 Passenger Vehicle)
To help you budget your trip, here are a few common routes and their approximate toll costs for a standard passenger car using E-ZPass:
- Interchange 1 to Interchange 18 (Full Length): Approximately $18.85 (Cash) or $14.15 (E-ZPass).
- Interchange 9 (New Brunswick) to Interchange 14 (Newark): Approximately $4.50.
- Interchange 4 (Mt. Laurel) to Interchange 11 (Woodbridge): Approximately $9.20.
