The Maryland Transportation Authority approved today, May 7, seven toll reduction packages across the state, an increase in E-ZPass discounts and the elimination of the monthly E-ZPass account fee.

Toll reductions will take effect at all bridges and tunnels starting July 1. The governor's office said the rollback will save commuters $270 million over the next five years.

"We are proud to announce what by far is our largest tax relief package to date and marks the first time tolls have been lowered in Maryland in nearly 50 years," Gov. Larry Hogan said in a statement. "This tax cut will put more than a quarter-billion back into the pockets of our beleaguered Maryland taxpayers, and back into our economy."
