The Kansas Turnpike Authority has announced that the KTAG electronic toll device will work on most toll roads in Colorado, while devices for Colorado drivers will work on Kansas toll roads.
Starting June 2nd, KTAGs will be recognized as a valid transponder on most Colorado’s toll roads in the Denver metro area including E-470 and Express Lanes. Northwest Parkway, a nine-mile, private toll road in the northwestern part of Denver, is not included yet.
In return, Colorado’s ExpressToll transponder joins the list of electronic toll devices accepted on the Kansas Turnpike:
- KTAG (Kansas)
- BancPass powered by KTAG (multiple states)
- Pikepass (Oklahoma)
- NATIONALPASS (multiple states)
- EZ TAG (Texas)
- TxTAG (Texas)
- TollTag (Texas)
- SunPass, including SunPass Mini and SunPass Pro (Florida)
- ExpressToll (Colorado)
- BestPass (commercial transponder)
- PrePass (commercial transponder)
Turnpike Authority CEO Steve Hewitt said in a press release that this is happening at a convenient time for regional travelers, and it’s happening just before the KTA moves to cashless tolling on July 1st. He said the changes will make travel easier for customers.
