Some states are allowed to charge tolls on certain segments of Interstates due to provisions in federal law, specifically the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995 and subsequent legislation. These laws permit states to implement tolls on new construction projects or for specific purposes, such as maintenance and improvements, if they receive federal approval. Additionally, some states have tolling authority on existing highways through public-private partnerships or specific state legislation. This approach helps generate revenue for infrastructure while maintaining compliance with federal regulations.
