As summer comes to an end, The Toll Roads anticipate a busy travel period during Labor Day weekend. Visitors driving through Orange County to and from the Inland Empire, San Diego and Los Angeles are encouraged to drive The Toll Roads (State Routes 73, 133, 241 and 261) as alternatives to the freeways.

The 73 Toll Road is a popular route for drivers traveling between Los Angeles and San Diego. The 241 Toll Road is a popular route to get to and from the Inland Empire, mountains and deserts to Orange County's beaches.

Pay Tolls Online Using One-Time-Toll - Visitors can pay tolls online or via The Toll Roads' free app using the One-Time-Toll® payment option. With One-Time-Toll, drivers have 5 days after their trip to make a One-Time-Toll payment to avoid receiving a Notice of Toll Evasion.
