Traffic keeps moving with all-electronic tolling.

With AET in place, drivers can travel through toll points without stopping thanks to E-ZPass and Pay By Plate technology. The result? Less congestion, smoother commutes, and a more efficient drive across the Richmond region.

A quick reminder to make sure your E-ZPass account and vehicle information are up to date before you hit the road.

Commuter Tip of the Day! 🚗

During busy commute times, traffic can slow down quickly near merges, exits, and toll zones. Giving the vehicle ahead of you a little extra space can help prevent sudden braking and keep traffic flowing smoothly.

With RMTA’s new all electronic tolling system, you can also expect a more seamless drive through toll areas with no stopping, just steady movement through your commute.
