Most toll roads/bridges/tunnels are going cashless! You can only pay cash at a New York toll booth in some circumstances, but there are plenty of other options that are quicker and less of a headache.
Pay Toll(s) With CashThe Toll Roads have partnered with PayNearMe to give drivers the option to pay tolls, replenish FasTrak® accounts and resolve violations with cash at more than 40,000 participating retailers nationwide, including: 7-Eleven, CVS Pharmacy, Family Dollar, Walgreens, Walmart and more.
With the 'Tolls NY' mobile app, available for free on the Google Play or Apple App stores, you can make one-time payments to your E-ZPass account by credit/debit card or bank account debit, as well as pay your Tolls by Mail bills.
Without adding in tolls and tip, taxis follow a standard $52 fare to JFK from Manhattan. Is it cheaper to take a taxi or Uber in NYC? In most cases, it will be cheaper to take a taxi than do rideshare or Uber from JFK airport to Manhattan.
NY Thruway toll paymentsThe Berkshire Connector costs $1.03 (or $0.79 if you have an E-ZPass) to travel between the Massachusetts state line. The Grand Island Bridges cost $1.24 (or $0.95) to cross and the New Rochelle – $2.16 (or $1.66 for E-ZPass handlers). New York Thruway is all-cashless.
