* Your starting point in Illinois matters greatly. Illinois is a large state. Driving from Chicago will have a vastly different toll cost than driving from Cairo.
* Your route matters. You can take multiple different routes, and some will have more tolls than others. Toll roads and expressways may offer faster travel but at a cost. Using a GPS navigation app that accounts for tolls will be essential in planning a route and determining a cost estimate.
To get an accurate toll estimate, you need to:
1. Specify your starting point in Illinois.
2. Use a GPS app or online mapping service (like Google Maps, Apple Maps, or Waze) that accounts for tolls. These apps will calculate the route and the total toll cost based on real-time conditions and your chosen route.
Once you input your specific starting point in Illinois and State College, PA as your destination, the app will give you a much more precise toll cost.
