About GA400
Atlanta’s commuters rely heavily on the GA 400 Extension to facilitate commutes between work and home. Completed in 1993, the GA 400 Extension got its start through funding from the 1987 Federal Highway Act, which provided $98 million for a “High Technology Demonstration Project” to bring electronic toll collection (ETC) using automated vehicle identification to the area. It was the first project of its kind in the United States.
Today, about 119,000 people use the 6.2-mile system every weekday. Approximately 41% percent of all vehicles traveling GA 400 use the all-electronic toll lanes or “Cruise” lanes. Customers who have a Cruise Card or Peach Pass can use the “Cruise” lanes 24 hours a day and enjoy the convenience of not stopping at a toll booth.
The State Road and Tollway’s (SRTA) Board, chaired by the Governor of Georgia, is responsible for the accounting of these toll funds and annually adopts a budget allocating all revenue in order to ensure safe and efficient operations of the system.
The toll rate for most cars is .50 cents. See the attached Toll Rates Chart for toll amounts for multiple axles.
