Bay Area bridge tolls are going up by $1 on Jan. 1, and the Bay Area Toll Authority is expected to vote Wednesday on additional future increases. The New Year’s Day hike brings tolls for the Bay Area’s seven state-owned bridges to $8. It’s the last of three voter-approved increases passed in June 2018 for the Bay, Antioch, Benicia, Carquinez, Dumbarton, Richmond-San Rafael and San Mateo bridges. On Wednesday, the toll authority is scheduled to vote on future toll increases that would be phased in over a five-year period starting in 2026. Under the proposed new toll hike, some drivers could be paying as much as $11.50 by 2030. The table below provides a toll price breakdown for regular two-axle cars and trucks.
