Toll hikes on MTA bridges and tunnels will go into effect this weekend, with E-ZPass users paying 6% more and toll-by-mail customers and out-of-state E-ZPass users paying 10% more. The cost of commuting on subways, buses, Metro-North, and the Long Island Rail Road will also increase, with monthly and weekly tickets on the LIRR and Metro-North increasing by up to 4.5% and the base fare for subways and buses increasing from $2.75 to $2.90. The MTA is also planning to implement congestion pricing tolls in Manhattan next year.
