Motorists urged to click and claim toll relief before June 30

Monday 30 June is the last date on which anyone can claim toll relief cash that was accrued in 2024.

Since the $60 toll cap began on 1 January 2024, more than $139 million has been distributed, mainly in Western Sydney suburbs where using toll roads is more necessity than choice.

A further $130 million has been accrued but not yet claimed between 1 January 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 ending 30 March.

Toll relief has become a key cost-of-living support measure under the Minns Labor Government after the Liberal Party saddled motorists with total toll bill of $195 billion out to 2060.

Data shows toll relief is landing hardest in the areas it is needed most.

Three suburbs have become the first to tick past $2 million in rebates claimed: Blacktown, Baulkham Hills and Auburn.

There are now ten suburbs in the $1 million club: Merrylands, Marsden Park, Castle Hill, Quakers Hill, Lakemba, Kellyville, Bankstown, Greystanes, West Pennant Hills and Punchbowl.

The Government is progressing toll reform in negotiation with the private toll road concessionaires while providing vital toll relief through the $60 cap.

Negotiations are focused on agreeing a new toll price structure in order to proceed to the next stage of the Direct Dealing process. The negotiations have been collaborative and positive, however reform of this scale takes time.

Toll relief claims for the second quarter will open on 9 July 2025. Toll rebates from the 2025 calendar year are able to be claimed up until 30 June 2026.

As part of a 'fair use' provision in place, motorists can claim up to a maximum of $340 per week for each tag or licence plate number after they pass $60 paid on tolls in any one week.

Drivers who have spent more than $60 a week on toll trips are encouraged to visit the Service NSW website, link your toll account to your MyServiceNSW Account and claim if eligible.

Minister for Transport John Graham said:

“The $60 toll cap is a critical cost-of-living support and I am pleased to see it has been laser-like in getting to where it is needed most, suburbs like Blacktown, Baulkham Hills, Marsden Park and Bankstown.

“These are the parts of Western Sydney where paying a toll is not a choice and in many cases relying on public transport is not a viable choice either.

“June 30 is the last day to claim toll relief that was accrued in calendar year 2024 and we want to remind people that the claims process is a simple, online process via Service NSW."

Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government Jihad Dib said:

“It’s heartening to see the relief provided by the NSW Government’s $60 toll cap is getting where it’s needed most.

“This initiative, delivered through Service NSW, puts money back into people’s pockets at a time when we know families across the state are doing it tough. The positive difference this is making to peoples’ lives is something we, as a government, are proud of.

“The claim process is quick and simple to follow on the Service NSW website but if you need extra support, it’s available in Service NSW Centres or by calling 13 77 88.”
