Requires SJTA to suspend certain tolls on the Atlantic City Expressway in certain circumstances.
This bill requires the South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) to automatically suspend tolls on the Atlantic City Expressway east of the Garden State Parkway whenever U.S. Route 40 is closed east of that point. It directly affects drivers traveling between Atlantic City and surrounding areas who would otherwise face toll charges when U.S. Route 40 - frequently closed due to flooding - is unavailable. The suspension is automatic and takes effect immediately upon U.S. Route 40 closure, eliminating toll fees during these disruptions. This policy change ensures motorists have a toll-free alternative route during closures of the main thoroughfare.
