MassDOT Secretary Discusses Toll Collection under the Turnpike’s New AET System

MassLive.com reports, “Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation Stephanie Pollack, sitting down with MassLive and The Republican on Dec. 28, said about 85 percent of all toll transactions on the Pike are now through the E-ZPass system and are electronically billed.” MassDOT tolling director Steve Collins adds that the department has had 100 percent success in billing E-ZPass account holders, “even when they don’t have a transponder in the vehicle, providing the plate is registered to an account.” Pollack also discusses toll-by-plate collection and interstate cooperation on toll enforcement.
