Travel Advisory
If you’re travelling from Sactown to the City (aka San Fran), 8 DOLLARS in the new magic number. As of January 1, the tolls were increased to FOUR DOLLARS each way (I usually have to pay going in on the Bay Bridge and coming back on the Carquinez bridge). So, be prepared with the extra cash, or log onto www.511.org, and sign up for a Fastrak, which automaticaly deducts money from one of your credit/debit cards every time you pass!
Fastrack users also save $1 in January off the newly higher priced bridges. Plus you get to use the special lanes. It’s a great deal!
