It means that truckers will pay $12 instead of $8 at the Fort McHenry Tunnel and $30 instead of $20 at the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway Bridge on Interstate 95.
Rates for four-wheelers will remain unchanged under the proposal.

Nice huh and in PA the toll rd now costs $.48 per mile if you have to run it oops i almost forgot ifta if you dont buy fuel then you are getting hit again for about $.38 making it cost $.96 per mile going to the state. I could be a little off on the fuel tax i am going off of memory on that number so before someone tells me im an idiot im just making the point that most of what you get per mile goes to the state if you run in Pa. Making it a zero profit for all Pa miles so my question is why would anyone take a load that puts you on the Pa pike. Breezwood going west to the first toll is $55.00 for a full load.
