HIGHLAND – For the first time in several years, tolls on the five Mid-Hudson Valley bridge crossings over the Hudson River are likely going to increase in the not-too-distant future.
The New York State Bridge Authority currently charges $1.50 to cross each bridge, or $1.25 with E-ZPass, but the agency wants to covert to all electronic tolling and raise the price.
How much the toll will increase has yet to be determined.
The authority also will spend $90 million to re-deck the north span of the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge in 2020. The south span was re-decked in 2015.
