Porcari said today... Under the proposal given preliminary approval by the authority's board, users of the E-ZPass electronic toll collection system will be charged $1.50 a month for bill processing even if they don't use a toll facility during that month... New and replacement transponders -- the electronic devices placed in vehicles to record tolls -- will no longer be free.

Meanwhile, the operators of trucks with three axles or more face toll increases from between 33 percent and 80 percent...
