Get ready for potential changes on Indiana highways.
House Bill 14-61 allows the Indiana Department of Transportation to explore tolling on additional roadways.
The law allows IN-DOT to seek federal approval for tolls on any highway.
For many drivers, this means routes they’ve traveled for free for years could soon come with a daily cost.
Lawmakers say Indiana’s gas tax isn’t bringing in enough money to keep up with road repairs and improvements.
A recent analysis shows tolling could generate around $38 billion for Indiana through 2050.
State officials say no final decisions on specific toll roads have been made, and any proposals would require further review.
