SUMMARY: Austin has 10 toll roads managed by two operators: the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (CTRMA) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). CTRMA oversees six toll roads, including 183A Toll and MoPac Express Lane, while TxDOT manages four, such as SH 45 North and SH 130. Some roads are operated by regional mobility authorities due to legislation from 2001. Toll payment options include TxTag, EZ TAG, and NTTA TollTag.
