Ohio motorists can now use the E-ZPass in North Carolina

BEREA, Ohio — Starting today, drivers with an E-ZPass transponder can add the North Carolina Turnpike to the list of 24 other toll agencies that currently accept this technology.

“This is an exciting day for travelers within the 15 state E-ZPass region and a monumental business agreement for the tolling industry,” said E-ZPass Group’s Executive Director P.J. Wilkins.

While the North Carolina Turnpike Authority has had electronic tolling in place for some time, their “NC Quick Pass” was not readable in other states. Now, the interoperability feature between these systems will allow E-ZPass customers to use their transponder on the North Carolina Turnpike and NC Quick Pass customers to use their transponder in all states that operate with the E-ZPass system.
