Toll Calculation Logic Explained
Base Toll
Each route has a predefined base toll.
Vehicle Surcharge
A multiplier is applied based on vehicle class:
- Class 1 = 1×
- Class 2 = 1.5×
- Class 6 = 3.5×
E-ZPass Discount
If selected, a 25% discount is applied to the adjusted toll.
Final Toll Formula
Final Toll = (Base Toll × Vehicle Multiplier) − E-ZPass Discount

Vehicle: Class 3 (3-Axle Truck)
Base Toll: $28.00
Multiplier: 2.0
Adjusted Toll: $56.00
E-ZPass Discount: $14.00
