Wisconsin Department of Transportation Plans New Toll Fees – Here’s How Much More You’ll Pay to Drive
Starting next year, your commute just got more expensive as the Wisconsin Department of Transportation rolls out a controversial new toll system on major highways. Consumer advocates warn that this could add hundreds of dollars annually to your daily drive, with rural and low-income drivers hit hardest. The plan, aimed at funding road repairs, means you’ll pay per mile on interstates like I-94 and I-43, with tolls potentially ranging from 5 to 15 cents per mile. That’s up to $3 extra per round trip for a 20-mile commute. Check your route now—this could drain your wallet before you even hit the gas station.
