A new toll rate on Card Sound Road took effect on Oct. 1. The toll adjustment follows the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index.
Two-axle vehicles, such as cars, pickup trucks or motorcycles, will now pay $1.60 when crossing the Card Sound toll near Alabama Jacks. For three axles, the toll is $3.15, and each additional axle is $1.05.
The toll is completely electronic, using Toll-By-Plate, SunPass, or other highway passes like E-Pass or EZ-Pass. No cash is accepted at the toll. The toll helps fund maintenance costs of the road and future repair and replacement of the five bridges along Card Sound Road.
Two discount programs are available for Monroe County residents with a two-axle vehicle and a good-standing SunPass account.
- Monthly Discount Program: Drivers do not need to sign up for the monthly discount program and will automatically receive a 40 percent rebate on their SunPass account after any calendar month that 28 or more one-way trips are made through the toll.
- Annual Pass: The annual pass is for frequent users and allows for unlimited trips through the toll. The fee is $385 per year and runs from Jan. 1 through Dec. 31, 2022. The annual pass will be available for purchase in December and January. Additional annual pass program details will be released later this year.
