TOLEDO, Ohio —Ohio will roll out the E-ZPass electronic payment system for turnpike drivers Oct. 1, a plan that includes a fare increase for drivers paying cash. The Ohio Turnpike Commission announced the details of its E-ZPass system Friday after discussing the concept for years and approving it in March. Currently the driver of a car traveling from I-75 in Toledo to the Indiana line pays $2.75 and pays $7.50 if traveling from I-75 to the Pennsylvania line. Cars using E-ZPass will pay the current rates starting Oct. 1. For motorists not using E-ZPass, the rates will be $4 from I-75 west to Indiana and $11 for the trip east to Pennsylvania when the system is activated. Trucks will be charged based on the number of axles, rather than on weight.
