Pikepass cash customers to pay more

Oklahoma City, Okla. — You may need to carry some extra change in your car if you don't have a Pikepass.

The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority is upping its rates for cash customers starting July 15.

Rates will go up by 2 point 5-percent.

Over the last three and a half years toll increases have helped pay for several projects, including an expansion of the Turner Turnpike between Bristow and Tulsa.

The raise is the final toll increase from the Driving Forward Initiative, which began in October 2016.
