Electronic Tolling Coming to North Texas

The North Texas Tollway Authority said Aug. 15 it would convert all its toll roads to all-electronic toll collection, eliminating cash payment options entirely.

NTTA said full implementation of the system will be complete by 2010. The authority operates the Dallas North Tollway, President George Bush Turnpike, Addison Airport Toll Tunnel and Mountain Creek Lake Bridge.

With the new system, cameras will photograph license plates of cars and trucks that don’t have electronic tolling devices and send the owners a bill.
