Do you get a receipt when paying cash for a toll on the Ben Franklin Bridge?

No, you typically won’t receive a receipt when paying cash at the Ben Franklin Bridge toll plaza.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • The Ben Franklin Bridge uses a cash and E-ZPass system for tolling westbound traffic from New Jersey to Pennsylvania.
  • Cash lanes have toll collectors who receive your payment.
  • Receipts aren’t routinely issued for cash transactions to streamline traffic flow.

Alternatives for Toll Records

If you need a record of your toll payment, consider these options:

  • Statement from your bank or credit union: If you use a debit card to withdraw cash for the toll, your bank statement might reflect the transaction.
  • Photographic Proof (optional): You can take a picture of the toll plaza signage showing the date and time (ensure this doesn’t impede traffic flow).

For Further Information:

  • DRPA Toll Information: The Delaware River Port Authority (DRPA) manages the Ben Franklin Bridge. Visit their website for the official toll schedule and accepted payment methods: DRPA Bridge Toll Schedule

Remember:

  • Always carry enough exact change to avoid delays at the toll plaza.
  • Consider using E-ZPass for automatic toll payment and detailed transaction records.
