Where are the toll roads in North Carolina?
My business associates—we’re in the waste disposal business—have a whole bunch of stuff we need to take care of in and around the Tar Heel State. Where are the toll roads in North Carolina?

North Carolina has two toll roads:
- The Triangle Expressway near Raleigh: Covers 18.8 miles running from NC-147 in Durham County to NC-540 in Morrisville and extends NC-540 as the Western Wake Parkway into Holly Springs
- The Monroe Expressway near Charlotte: Covers 18 miles running from US-74 near I-485 in Mecklenburg County to US-75 between Wingate and Morrisville in Union County.
Both tolls are electronic, so you won’t be able to use cash on North Carolina’s toll roads. There are three ways you can pay for North Carolina’s tolls:
- NC Quick Pass: You can register for an NC Quick Pass online. When you receive your transponder, install it on your windshield. A meter at the toll entrance and exit will read your transponder and automatically debit the toll amount from your account. NC Quick Pass users receive a discounted rate.
- E-ZPass: You can instead use an E-ZPass to use North Carolina toll roads. Similarly, you’ll need to register for an account and then affix a transponder to your windshield, and you’ll be billed automatically when using the toll roads.
- Toll by Mail: You can still use North Carolina’s toll roads without an NC Quick Pass or an E-ZPass with the Toll by Mail method. When you enter and exit the toll road, cameras will photograph your license plate and bill you for the time you used the toll road.
