FINAL
Table 7 provides the comparison for trips and collected toll revenue on the ICC by method of payment. The ICC trended differently to the Legacy system with trips and revenue. As shown, FY 2026 trips were 2.4 percent below forecast and collected revenue was 2.0 percent below forecast. This underperformance is largely influenced by the video collections which fell below forecast throughout the fiscal year. However, E-ZPass transactions and toll revenue also underperformed in the second half of the fiscal year by around 2.0 percent. The comparison of total transactions and collected toll revenue for the I-95 ETLs is shown in Table 8 . FY 2026 transactions and toll revenue were 3.3 and 1.8 percent below forecast, respectively. This amounts to a negative forecast variance of approximately 348,000 transactions and $436,000 for FY 2026. The deviation of actual transactions from forecast is due to assumptions around the northbound extension. The transactions deviating a few percentage points more from forecast than the toll revenue indicates while we may have overestimated the total number of transactions, the average toll is also higher than what was estimated. Table 9 provides a comparison for the MDTA other revenue to forecast, and Table 10 provides a comparison for the total MDTA system transactions and revenue, including all facilities and other revenue. Other revenue came in above forecast by 13.9 percent due to overperformance of civil penalty collection compared to forecast in the first half of the fiscal year and in June when the large share of civil penalties were recorded. When considering the systemwide performance in Table 10, transactions in FY 2026 were just below forecast by 0.3 percent. The associated collected toll and other revenue in FY 2026 was 1.2 percent above forecast, due to overperformance of collected ETC civil penalty revenue collection. Overall, FY 2026 actual collected revenue was $9.6 million above forecast.
