How are tolls calculated for trucks in Louisiana
Tolls for trucks on the Louisiana Highway 1 Bridge[4] are based on number of axles. Tolls for “dual” axle vehicles are higher. To keep it simple, Louisiana toll calculator assumes trucks have “dual” tires.
| Tollguru Vehicle Type | LA-1 vehicle class |
| Truck 2-axles | 2 axle dually |
| Truck 3-axles | 3 axle trucks and buses dually with 1 axle trailer |
| Truck 4-axles | 4 axle (dually with 2 axles trailer) |
| Truck 5-axles | 5 axle (dually with 3 axles trailer) |
| Truck 6-axles | 6 axle (dually with 4 axles trailer) |
Tolls on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway[5] are calculated based on number of axles and height of the vehicle. Vehicles less than 7 feet are charged lower tolls for a same number of axles. Since trucks are higher than 7 feet, Tollguru toll calculator lists tolls by number of axles.
All vehicles pay $1.00 toll to visit Avery Island.
Louisiana Truck toll calculator can help you calculate tolls and gas expenses for all truck classes in Louisiana.
