How to use this calculator

  1. Enter or choose toll at each plaza (one way).
  2. Enter or choose journey.
  3. Enter or choose number of trips.
  4. Enter or choose discount (optional).
  5. Enter or choose one-way distance.
  6. The total tolls for all trips updates as you type. Use Copy result or Share to keep it.

Method

One way = Σ plaza tolls; Per trip = One way × (1 + Return% ÷ 100 if return) × (1 − Discount% ÷ 100); Total = Per trip × Trips

Return%
share of the outbound toll charged on the way back
Discount%
any tag or frequent-user reduction

Worked example

  1. One way = 5.50 + 3.25 + 7 = 15.75.
  2. Return trip = 15.75 × 2 = 31.50; less 10% = 28.35.
  3. Four trips = 28.35 × 4 = 113.40, or 28.35 ÷ 420 km = 0.0675 per km.

Four return trips through three plazas cost 113.40 in tolls after a 10% discount.

What the result means

Compare the toll cost per km with the fuel and time a toll-free route would add. For trucks, tolls often depend on axles or weight, so make sure the plaza charges match your vehicle class.

Assumptions and limits

  • The same plazas and charges apply on every trip.
  • Distance-based or time-of-day tolling is not modelled; enter the charge you would actually pay at each point.

Questions

Where do I find the toll amounts?

From the toll operator’s published rate table for your vehicle class, or your route planner. Rates change, so check before relying on them.

How do I handle a return-within-24-hours discount?

Set “Return leg charged at” to the percentage the operator charges for the return journey.
