1st4our25th Posted November 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I've never driven on toll roads and I'm confused trying to find the cost. Not sure if I should pay for a pass. Anybody want to help me out? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGBOBOFTHENORTH Posted November 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Unless there are some toll roads I'm not familiar with in NC, there are no toll roads on that route you've posted. I-95 is completely toll free as is SR 528 from I-95 to the port. (SR 528 from I-95 towards Orlando does have tolls but you're not going that way.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was confused because it says tolls, but couldn't find one on that route when I put it in a toll calculator.

hrhdhd Posted November 1, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Agree with King Bob. We drive a lot from central FL to Charlotte on that route and have never paid a toll. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, even though you don't need a toll transponder for this trip, doesn't mean you shouldn't have one for other trips. Stop at any Publix, CVS or Walgreens while you're in Florida and for $14.95 you can buy a SunPass Pro. Not only is it valid throughout Florida but also in the northeast and midwest in E-ZPass lanes. See details & map at: https://www.sunpass.com/en/about/pro.shtml. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRover96 Posted November 3, 2023 #6 Share Posted November 3, 2023 There might be tolls around the east side of Jacksonville (I-295). I believe there is some parallel toll lanes that might eliminate traffic. During non-rush hours usually not worth it. I usually use I-295, just don't like the even more congestion of I-95 through Jacksonville. RedRover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrhdhd Posted November 3, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Thanks, @RedRover96. These are new but avoidable. https://www.jacksonville.com/story/news/traffic/2022/05/23/tolls-enforced-25-fines-jacksonville-new-295-toll-lanes-peak-hours/9890691002/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancer Bob Posted November 3, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 3, 2023 The Sunpass Mini was readily available in those stores, but I wasn't able to find a Pro, it's much bulkier and takes up too much shelf space. I eventually found them to be available in vending machines at the first rest stop entering FL (Florida Welcome Center). This was on I-75, I don't have current knowledge for I-95. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
