Tolls and the West Gate Tunnel
When completed, the West Gate Tunnel will be tolled to balance traffic across the freeway network and to help fund its construction and ongoing operation. There will be four new toll points. Toll charging and prices will vary, depending on what type of vehicle you’re driving.
Heavy vehicles will pay a single total toll when travelling on the upgraded West Gate Freeway, new tunnels and city connections. Cars, motorcycles and light commercial vehicles will pay tolls when travelling using the motorway's new tunnels and city connections.

Toll points on the West Gate Freeway and West Gate Tunnel
Upgraded West Gate Freeway toll point
- Heavy commercial vehicles (HCV): rigid and articulated trucks and buses
- High productivity freight vehicles (HPFV): the new generation of larger trucks
The upgraded West Gate Freeway toll point will be located between Millers Road and Williamstown Road. Cars and motorcycles won’t be charged tolls for travelling on the upgraded West Gate Freeway.

The new West Gate Tunnel will have three toll points: on the future Hyde St ramps; in the tunnel; and for accessing the city. Some tolls will be charged during the morning peak only. (See the Toll prices table below for details.)
