Work continues on the Northwest Indiana Bridge Rehabilitation Project with new traffic patterns beginning tonight, at the West Point Toll Plaza. To ensure the safety of all motorists, the westbound toll lanes will be dedicated to specific exits. Two lanes on the far-right side of the plaza will be strictly for customers exiting onto Indianapolis (Indy) Blvd, only. All other lanes at the plaza will be dedicated to customers traveling onto the Chicago Skyway.
Customers will need to enter the appropriate lanes for their exit at westbound mile marker 2.0. There will be numerous electronic signs notifying customers of this new traffic pattern several miles in advance of the lane shift. Travelers are advised to follow on-road signage to ensure they are in the appropriate travel lanes for their intended exit.

Better Tech for Better Tolling
The ITRCC has begun to refresh the in-lane toll experience, which will carry out road work into 2023. This is a complete modernization of all in-lane equipment including new Automatic Toll Payment Machines (ATPMs), new transponder readers, new cameras, and a complete rework of back-office system designed to deliver quality-of-life improvements to toll collectors, customer service agents, and customers alike.
