tollways
Roads with fees
Tollways are roads that charge drivers a fee for use, typically highways or expressways maintained through the revenue collected.
The term is interchangeable with toll roads, though tollway often suggests a modern, high-speed route: The tollway cuts thirty minutes off the commute.
Some tollways use electronic passes; others have cash booths.
