Motorways and tolling

There are more than 110 km of connected motorways for motorists travelling in and around Sydney.

Most of the motorways on Sydney’s orbital network are toll roads, meaning you have to pay a toll to use them. Some are also fully electronic, so you can’t pay the toll with cash at a tollbooth. Instead, you need to pay the toll with an electronic tag or a pass.

Having an electronic tag is the easiest way to pay tolls. All electronic tags, including interstate tags, are interoperable meaning they work on all motorways.

If you are visiting Sydney for a short time or only use a motorway occasionally and don’t have a tag, you can register for a pass.

A pass is an arrangement between you and a toll provider to travel on selected motorways. If you plan to travel on more than one toll road in Sydney, you will only need one pass to cover you for all toll ways.
