North Texas Approves Interoperability with Oklahoma Turnpike Authority

DALLAS—The North Texas Tollway Authority passed a resolution at it’s monthly Board meeting earlier today, allowing NTTA and the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to become interoperable on the two agencies toll roads.

The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority expects to pass a similar resolution at its monthly Board meeting October xx.

The resolutions will allow customers of the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to use their Pikepass on toll roads in and around the Dallas-Ft. Worth Area. Meanwhile, NTTA customers will be able to use their TollTag on all 10 turnpikes throughout Oklahoma. 

“This is a tremendous asset for motorists who travel between the two states and routinely take toll roads, both here in Oklahoma and in the Dallas area,” Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin said. “We’ve been pushing for interoperability for quite some time and I’m excited the two states could come together and get all the details worked out.”

It’s anticipated, customers will be able to start using their Pikepass in the Dallas area by next fall.

“We hope to have everything in place so that Pikepass customers will be able to use their tag in the Dallas area by next years OU/Texas football game,” said Tim Stewart, OTA Director. “We continually listen to our customers, and being able to use their Pikepass in other states is just another added benefit we think they will take advantage of.”

NTTA operates three toll roads throughout the Dallas Metroplex: the Dallas North Tollway, George Bush Turnpike and the Sam Rayburn Tollway. NTTA also operates two toll bridges and a small toll tunnel.
