Economic Impact of Tolling Act

The Economic Impact of Tolling Act (HR 1759) requires the Secretary of Transportation to complete and publicly release an economic impact analysis before implementing or authorizing any congestion pricing program on toll roads, bridges, or tunnels. This directly affects federal transportation decisions and ensures transparency by mandating that the public has access to the analysis prior to program rollout. The bill does not alter existing toll systems but sets a clear pre-implementation requirement for new congestion pricing initiatives. Its key mechanism is the mandatory completion and public disclosure of the economic study as a prerequisite for any such program.
