About this Article

Transponders that talk back to let you know if you successfully paid a toll could be coming to Illinois. But there's some technical and financial hurdles to factor in. Typically, transponders cost the Illinois tollway about $8 to $9; feedback transponders could cost about 25 percent more. The board took no action on the issue, but will continue to assess price and technology challenges related to updated devices.
