This bill mandates that the New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTA) and the South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) display the toll amount paid by customers using the electronic toll collection system, known as E-ZPass, on electronic displays in every lane of their toll plazas. This requirement applies to all toll facilities operated by these authorities, specifically on the New Jersey Turnpike, the Garden State Parkway, and the Atlantic City Expressway. However, it excludes toll plazas where tolls are collected via high-speed gantries.

Additionally, the bill introduces a definition for "electronic toll collection system," which refers to the system used by the authorities to register and collect tolls for vehicles entering their toll plazas. The bill also includes amendments to existing law to incorporate these definitions and requirements, ensuring clarity in the implementation of the new display requirements. The provisions of the bill are set to take effect immediately, but they will not affect any existing contracts or agreements in place at the time of enactment.
