To help make the choice between toll roads and regular roads easier, we’re rolling out toll prices on Google Maps for the first time.

We look at factors like the cost of using a toll pass or other payment methods, what the day of the week it is, along with how much the toll is expected to cost at the specific time you’ll be crossing it.
