Does Rhode Island have tolls?

My friends and I are road tripping from Boston in the spring, and we’re thinking about heading to Providence. I’m trying to work out some budget logistics currently—does Rhode Island have tolls?

Providence
is a great destination for a spring trip!
Yes,
Rhode Island
does have tolls, but only one: the Claiborne Pell/Newport Bridge.
If you’re planning on heading to
Newport
from Providence, you can expect to pay $4 in cash ($2 each way). You may also use an E-ZPass transponder for the same price if you aren’t a Rhode Island resident, or you can pay with a credit or debit card.
On the off chance you or one of your friends does happen to be a Rhode Island driver with an E-ZPass, you’ll get a discounted rate of $0.83 each way.
In any case, you don’t have to worry at all about hefty toll costs in Little Rhody. You don’t even have to worry too much if you forget your wallet and E-ZPass—just fill out an unpaid toll invoice form at the toll booth and pay it by mailed check or in person within 14 days.
Accidentally going through the E-ZPass lane without a transponder isn’t a problem either: simply call 1-877-743-9727 with your license plate number on hand.
