Some drivers using the Bay Area’s seven state-owned toll bridges could face tolls as high as $11.50 by 2030.
The Bay Area Toll Authority on Wednesday heard a proposal that would phase in a series of toll hikes over five years starting in 2026, at which point FasTrak users would pay $8.50 to cross the Bay, Antioch, Benicia, Carquinez, Dumbarton, Richmond-San Rafael and San Mateo bridges. Tolls would then increase by 50 cents each year over the following four years.
Drivers who use a license plate account or invoiced tolling would pay slightly more.
The table below provides a toll price breakdown for regular two-axle cars and trucks.
DATE | FASTRAK | LICENSE PLATE ACCOUNT | INVOICED TOLLING |
Jan. 1, 2026 | $8.50 | $8.50 | $8.50 |
Jan. 1, 2027 | $9.00 | $9.25 | $10.00 |
Jan. 1, 2028 | $9.50 | $9.75 | $10.50 |

Jan. 1, 2030 | $10.50 | $10.75 | $11.50 |
Before a final decision is made, a series of public hearings will be held.
