Toll Plaza Configuration
The Golden Gate Bridge Toll Plaza consists of a total of 14 toll lanes. Tolls are collected in the southbound direction only (in San Francisco). During the weekday peak traffic flow in the morning, 11 toll lanes are dedicated to southbound traffic and three to northbound traffic. During the weekday peak traffic flow in the afternoon, up to 5 toll lanes are dedicated to northbound traffic, leaving up to 9 for southbound traffic. During weekends and off-peak periods, the configuration is adjusted for the smooth flow of traffic.
Location of FasTrak ONLY Toll Lanes
During the morning and evening weekday peak commute hours, up to four toll lanes are dedicated as "FasTrak ONLY" toll lanes. During off-peak hours, a minimum of one "FasTrak ONLY" lane is available. The "FasTrak ONLY" toll lanes are always located on the left side of the Toll Plaza because of safety/operational issues. Dedicated FasTrak toll lanes are distinguished by the overhead message which reads "FasTrak ONLY" and a large FasTrak logo sign, which is posted above that.
