Toll increases coming this year for NJ commuters

No matter how you travel, trips around New Jersey and especially into New York City or Pennsylvania likely cost more in 2025.

Drivers and mass transit users already saw expenses increase last year.

In July, NJ Transit enacted a 15% across-the-board fare hike for its trains, light rail and bus lines. The action also set up an increase for this year.

In September, the Delaware River Port Authority added a dollar to tolls on the four bridges connecting New Jersey and Pennsylvania (Ben Franklin, Walt Whitman, Commodore Barry and Betsy Ross), to $6.

The E-ZPass frequent bridge travelers discount remains unchanged (cross 18 or more times in a month, save $18).

Here's a look at more than a dozen fare hikes and toll increases — or new fees — to budget for in 2025.
