    Get ready to pay higher tolls if you travel over any Delaware River Port Authority bridges.

    The DRPA's Finance Committee advanced a new toll schedule Wednesday morning.

    The plan increases passenger vehicle tolls from $5 to $6 for those traveling on the Ben Franklin, Walt Whitman, Commodore Barry and Betsy Ross bridges.

    The Board of Commissioners will vote next Wednesday, July 17.

    The earliest it would take effect is August 1.

    Officials say the increase is necessary to keep up with aging infrastructure and security.

    This would be the first toll hike in 13 years.
