In order to properly maintain its bridges in a safe and cost-effective
manner, the New York State Bridge Authority must raise tolls at its
five Hudson River crossings for the first time since 2000.
The new toll structure will primarily go to finance the re-decking of
the south span of the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, the Authority’s major
revenue source. The $81 million project will begin in 2013
and provide local jobs for three years.
The additional toll revenue used to maintain the Authority’s bridges
will stay entirely within the Mid-Hudson Region-funding work on the
Bear Mountain, Newburgh-Beacon, Mid-Hudson, Kingston-Rhinecliff, Rip
Van Winkle and Walkway Over the Hudson bridges.
The proposed increase for passenger cars, to $1.25 for EZPass and to
$1.50 for cash, would take effect on January 30th, after a public
hearing and after the Commissioner of the Department of Transportation
approves the plan.
The Authority is responsible for providing reliable, safe and
convenient access across the Hudson River to all lawful traffic within
the framework of a sound long-term financial policy. To that
end, the Authority will maintain a vigorous, integrated program of
inspection, maintenance, repair and rehabilitation to ensure the
structural integrity of its facilities and the safety of its patrons.
The Authority bridges are funded by tolls and no state or federal tax
dollars.
