I-25 North Express Lanes120th Avenue - Northwest Parkway/E-470As Express Lanes open throughout the state, there’s a lot to learn about how to appropriately use the lanes. It’s important to know that travelers are never forced to pay a toll and can always choose to travel in the adjacent free general purpose lanes. If motorists choose to jump in the Express Lane to get there faster, here are the basics.

All tolls are collected electronically through an ExpressToll account and pass, or through a License Plate Toll (LPT).

ExpressToll account and pass holders save money on every trip.

Drivers who choose to pay through anLPT will pay the toll plus a surcharge to process the license plate. A bill will be sent to the registered vehicle owner andit will be higher than if you have an ExpressToll account.

There’s no need to stop at a tollbooth, as overhead readers track tolling.

Existing ExpressToll sticker passes and Switchable HOV Transponders will workon the new section of the I-25 North Express Lanes.

The Switchable HOV Transponder is the only transponder that allows drivers to carpool in the I-25 North Express Lanes for free with three or more people in the car. An ExpressToll customer service representative can help you decide which pass is best for you, based on your particular needs.

How are toll prices determined?

What are the tolls?

Express Lanes will use a time of day pricing system in which tolls can change in price depending on the time of day and the typical busy times for the corridor.

The HPTE Board of Directors establishes toll rates annually and communicates with the corridor communities on toll rate changes.

Overhead Variable Message Signs are updated on the highway in real-time and show exactly what the toll rate is at that time, so the driver can know exactly how much they’ll be charged.
