What are “E-ZPass Only” lanes?
When toll plazas dedicate a particular lane(s) for electronic toll collection, a sign will be activated indicating “E-ZPass Only” and cash transactions are not accepted in this lane. As stated above, E-ZPass® is accepted in ALL lanes; however, when placed in a dedicated mode, this lane will be opened exclusively to customers with an E-ZPass® transponder. NOTE: There are times when the “E-ZPass Only” lane is not open. This is during heavy traffic periods in the summer, holidays and certain weekends when a large percentage of travelers do not have E-ZPass®. The reason lanes are not dedicated during these times is because more traffic can be processed through the plaza if every booth is manually staffed. This does not mean that E-ZPass® customers have to stop to pay toll while passing through a manned toll lane.
