tan_square "I promised the troubled E-ZPass system would be fixed, putting an end to bogus violations and installing new highspeed E-ZPass lanes around the State - we did it."

Improving E-ZPass for New Jersey Drivers

E-ZPass was created to make things easier for New Jersey Drivers, not to cause more hassles. When the McGreevey Administration entered office, the system was plagued by recurring equipment failures and nearly 500,000 erroneous violation notices. As promised, the McGreevey Administration responded by firing an incompetent company, hired by the previous administration, and replacing them with a firm that has proven results. We created a better system that drivers can count on to help alleviate traffic congestion and delays.

  • Reviews license plate information from photos taken in toll lanes - catching potential violators and virtually eliminating the chance of issuing bogus violations due to a malfunction.
  • Installed Express E-ZPass lanes that double the number of vehicles that can pass through the toll lanes each hour, moving motorists at uninterrupted highway speeds.
  • Express E-ZPass is now under construction on the Atlantic City Expressway and will be completed in the summer of 2004.
  • More Express E-ZPass lanes are one their way for the Garden State Parkway at the Asbury Park, Raritan South, and Toms River toll plazas, as well as Interchange 16/18E on the New Jersey Turnpike. Completion is expected by the summer of 2005.
