E-ZPass IS HERE!

The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel is now accepting E-ZPass.  This system became LIVE on November 1, 2007. 

While all lanes are equipped to accept E-ZPass, the far left lanes, both northbound and southbound, are dedicated as E-ZPass lanes only for cars and pickup trucks.  ALL LANES ARE GATED AND CUSTOMERS MUST SLOW DOWN TO A MINIMAL SPEED BEFORE PASSING THROUGH THE TOLL LANES.  For more information on the importance of these gated lanes at the CBBT, please click here

How It Works
With E-ZPass, paying tolls is convenient.  All lanes at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel will accept E-ZPass.  As you pass through the toll plaza, an antenna  will  electronically  read  your  account  information on  your E-ZPass tag.  Your toll will be electronically deducted from your prepaid account.
 

When you sign up for E-ZPass, you open up a whole new frontier in convenient transportation. Instead of the inconvenience of cash or  CBBT scrip tickets, E-ZPass  will allow you to pay tolls electronically as you pass through specially-equipped toll lanes.

You will be able to establish a prepaid E-ZPass account using your credit card. This convenient credit card payment option automatically replenishes your prepaid account.

When you establish an E-ZPass prepaid account, you will receive a small electronic tag that attaches to the windshield inside your car. Within the tag is an electronic chip that contains information about your account. Each  time  you  use a toll facility where E-ZPass is offered, an antenna at the toll plaza will read the vehicle and account information contained in your tag. The appropriate toll is then electronically debited from your prepaid account. A record of your transactions will be included in your periodic statement.


Customers  interested in  establishing a  new  personal or  commercial  E-ZPass account are able to meet "face to face" with customer service representatives at the newest E-ZPass Virginia Customer Service Center  located in the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel's Administration Building next to the North Toll Plaza on the Eastern Shore.  Office hours are 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday thru Friday.

Customers may also sign up for E-ZPass by visiting www.ezpassva.com or by calling 1-877-762-7824.
