Turnpikes; requiring legislative approval for toll increases; prohibiting Legislature from approving certain toll increases. Effective date.

SB 975 requires the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to get legislative approval via joint resolution before raising toll rates on any state turnpike. It specifically prohibits the Legislature from approving toll increases that offer more than a 10% discount to any specific group of users. The bill directly affects toll collection on Oklahoma's turnpike system and changes the process for rate adjustments. It takes effect November 1, 2025, and amends existing law to add these requirements.
