Monthly transactions for FY 2024 and FY 2025 for the total system are presented in Table 1 by vehicle type and payment method. This table and the remaining tables in this report will present TVI report data and represent transactions and associated revenue in the month the toll is paid. Significant monthly variations can be observed in transaction totals, and the distribution of transactions by payment method. These variations are the result of the timing of transaction processing in the back office, and not reflective of variations in traffic on MDTA system facilities. Total passenger car transactions for FY 2025 were 0.1 percent lower than FY 2024. The first half of FY 2025 was 2.6 percent lower than the same period in FY 2024, and second half transactions were 2.5 percent higher. Overall, commercial vehicle transactions for FY 2025 were 4.1 percent lower than FY 2024. The first half of the fiscal year was lower than FY 2024 by 7.2 percent and the second half by 0.9 percent compared to FY 2024. Overall, total system transactions in FY 2025 were 0.4 percent lower than FY 2024. The change in trend in the second half of the fiscal year for passenger and commercial vehicles was largely due higher rates of video-toll revenue collection, including collection of toll revenue associated with a large number of previously unpaid transactions that occurred between FY 2021 and FY 2023. This resulted in an influx of video transactions in FY 2023 that are tapering in the second half of FY 2025 and FY 2025 YTD. It caused a year-over-year to decrease, that is not influenced by in-lane traffic but rather the back-office processing. Additionally, there was a delay in reporting New York Thruway E-ZPass transactions in April and May, which caused a one-time overperformance in June 2025 for both passenger and commercial vehicles by 22.1 and 56.6 percent, respectively. Monthly collected toll revenue for FY 2024 and FY 2025 for the total system are provided in Table 2 . Figure 2 is a graphical depiction of the share of toll revenue by method of payment and vehicle class for the same period. Systemwide toll revenue trends for passenger cars were down 5.7 percent in the first half of FY 2025 but increased 2.9 percent in the second half over the same period in FY 2024. Revenue for commercial vehicles followed a different trend, largely due to video collections, and were down by 7.5 percent and 0.4 percent, respectively, for the first and second halves of the fiscal year, and down by 4.1percent for total FY 2025. Overall, FY 2025 toll revenue (excluding other revenue) decreased 2.5 percent compared with the same period in FY 2024. The year-over-year decreases are largely influenced by the backlog transactions that were paid in FY 2024 that did not occur in FY 2025.
