Ohio Turnpike launches new toll collection system

The Ohio Turnpike has launched its new toll collection system, covering the 241 mile stretch. The $250 million cost to modernize the toll collection system was funded exclusively by toll revenue. EZ pass lanes offer convenience and savings, reducing the need for toll plazas. For those without EZ Pass, the new system employs license plate readers to automatically bill drivers, with a $5 fee added to the toll.
