Cash will begin being accepted at 12:01 a.m. Thursday.

The toll booth will also be sanitized between shifts and the shifts have been staggered to limit the interaction and exposure among toll collectors.

Drivers are encouraged to wear a face mask when they pass through the cash lanes.

The bridge tolls have been collected by E-ZPass or toll-by-mail process since March 26 when cash collections were suspended as a precaution to curve the spread of COVID-19.

The E-ZPass Customer Service Center located inside the Vincent A. Julia Building remains closed.

There will be updated information available on DRBA's website by 6 p.m. on May 31.
