Hwy. 407 Tolls To Go Up In New Year
It happens every year and 2008 is no exception. It looks like driving on Ontario's toll highway will get more expensive in the New Year.
As of February 1st, rates will go up by 1.65 cents per kilometre.
The 407 Express Toll Route company announced the toll increase Friday and said it will help keep traffic flowing on the highway.
Rates vary based on vehicle size, time of day, transponder use and distance travelled.
Also starting Feb. 1, peak rates on the highway will vary by section of the highway travelled -- the regular zone, from Highways 401 to 404, and the light zone, which encompasses the rest of the toll road.
For a car, minivan or SUV travelling during peak hours, between 6am and 10am, and 3pm and 7pm, through the regular zone, it will cost 19.25 cents per km.
Travelling on the highway can cost as much as 57.75 cents per km, for a tractor-trailer driving through the regular zone during rush hour.
