Key Bridge collapse means Maryland will likely raise bridge, tunnel tolls in 2027

The Maryland Transportation Authority will raise tolls for the Bay Bridge and harbor tunnels in two years, part of the ongoing economic fallout caused by the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge earlier this year, but the size of the increases aren’t yet known. MDTA officials originally planned to raise tolls, due in part to inflation, in July 2028, the start of the authority’s fiscal year.
