A unique view of the work helping build the future of the Thruway.

Did you know - there are more than $1.1 BILLION in active construction projects ongoing right now on the Thruway system. These are toll dollars at work.

⚠️ Check Your Height. Know It's Right

πŸš” The Thruway Authority continues working with our partners at the New York State Police Troop T to crack down on ghost plates and toll evasion across the Thruway system.

So far this year, State Police has seized 214 vehicles and issued more than 1,100 tickets during four statewide enforcement details on the Thruway system.

When everyone pays their fair share, toll revenues can be reinvested into maintaining and improving the roadway that millions of motorists rely on every day. Thanks to Governor Hochul and our partners at Troop T for helping protect the integrity of the Thruway system.
