Notice
As of September 18, 2011 at 3 AM, or 0300 hours, the Port Authority of NY & NJ will increase the toll on all tunnels and bridges to and from New York. We initially thought it was simply chatter yet were able to find a link from the PANYNJ here: New Bridge & Tunnel Toll Rates and PATH Fares Effective September 18 2011
The Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, Goethals, Bayonne, Outerbridge and George Washington Bridge crossings will now be $12 which raises the round trip tolls to and from the outer-boroughs of NYC and New Jersey to $26 total.
This affects all totals to Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Long Island including La Guardia, Islip and JFK Airports. So we are clear, our fares have not increased. Tolls are paid directly to the respective States, which in this case is New York. As you can see while en route to your destination where tolls are involved they are paid directly to the toll booth operator who is a representative of the State.
We have not been informed of any increases by the MTA who operates the following:
Queens Midtown Tunnel
Brooklyn Battery Tunnel
RFK Bridge (formerly Triboro)
Bronx-Whitestone
Throggs Neck
Verrazano
Cross Bay Bridge
Henry Hudson Bridge
We will be updating our website to reflect this new development so passengers will be informed and can update their travel estimates. We will accept all wishes of good luck, minus the snickers, while we complete this site update.
Sincerely,
Secaucus Taxi Service
