Illinois tolls rise 60% next year to fund transit upgrades and avoid crises for CTA, Metra, and Pace.
Illinois drivers will face a 60% toll increase—45 cents per trip—on the Illinois Tollway starting next year, following passage of a $1.5 billion transit funding bill.
The rise, which could add $1.35 to a Rockford-to-O’Hare trip, aims to prevent financial crises for CTA, Metra, and Pace while funding system upgrades and a new Northern Illinois Transit Authority.
The state says the plan avoids new taxes, but critics, including rural residents, question the fairness of rural drivers subsidizing urban transit use.
Changes take effect next year, requiring properly funded transponders.
