    I am headed to Harrison, NJ (Newark area) then up to Andover, MA from NV. What are the current tolls and bridge costs for this trip?

    I-80 IL, IN, OH
    I-76 PA
    I-95 from Newark up to Boston....which bridge would you experienced Easterners recommend, and what will the bridge (tunnel) cost be?

    My gross will be about 52,000 with 4 axles total...the trailer is single axle.

    Would appreciate some input as it has been 4+ years since I have done this trip.

    Well I wouldn't run I-76 across PA it would be 40 miles shorter to stay on 80 right into 280 right into Harrison not to mention 80 is free to run and 76 will cost ya a fortune to run all the way across these days.

    As far as the bridges go can't help ya there.

    I80 indiana $35.20
    I80 ohio $40.00
    I76 pa it would be about $115
    I'm not 100% on pa bc I usually take i80 or i68 but I'm not sure what the ezpass cost is bc my company doesn't have em and I pay cash. Hope that helps. O and the amount I put is from beginning to end.
