<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, you must have a valid electronic toll tag to drive on Grand Parkway toll sections - there is no cash payment option anywhere on the system. Unlike some Texas toll roads, Grand Parkway does not offer Pay by Plate billing for most segments.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Key Reality:</strong> Driving without a valid toll tag on Fort Bend County segments results in violation notices with additional fees. TxDOT segments now offer Pay by Plate with 50% surcharge over tag rates as of April 2025.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">2025 Update:</strong> HCTRA now manages TxTag billing (since November 2024), and toll rates increased on January 1 and April 1, 2025. The system accepts TxTag, EZ TAG, TollTag, K-TAG, PIKEPASS, and METRO HOT Lanes tags.</p>

<h2 style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 25px 0 15px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #a2a9b1; padding-bottom: 2px;">Grand Parkway Toll Costs: Current Rates</h2>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Grand Parkway operates as SH 99, forming the outer loop around Houston with electronic tolling throughout eight operational segments covering approximately 107 miles.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I avoid Grand Parkway tolls completely?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Partially - you can exit before tolled overpasses on Fort Bend segments or use parallel roads like FM 1093. However, this adds 15-45 minutes to most trips and isn't practical for long-distance travel around Houston.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">What happens if I don't have a toll tag on FBCTRA segments?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">You'll receive a violation notice with additional fees. FBCTRA operates electronic-only tolling with no Pay by Plate option. Call (855) 999-2024 for one-time payment, but future travel requires a valid toll tag.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Do motorcycles pay tolls on Grand Parkway?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, motorcycles are classified as 2-axle vehicles and pay the same tolls as passenger cars. They must have a valid electronic toll tag on all segments.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I use E-ZPass on Grand Parkway?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, E-ZPass is not accepted in Texas. You need TxTag, EZ TAG, TollTag, K-TAG, PIKEPASS, or METRO HOT Lanes tags to use Grand Parkway toll facilities.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">How does trip building work on FBCTRA segments?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">FBCTRA combines multiple tolls within 4 hours on the same road into one transaction. For example, 7 separate $0.44 charges become one $3.08 charge on your statement, simplifying billing without additional fees.</p>
