    Only those operated by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which also runs the city buses and subways, as well as the commuter rails into and out of the city's three main train stations.

    The bridges is questioned are:

    Robert F. Kennedy Bridge (formerly the Triborough Bridge), connecting Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, and Randalls Island

    Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, which connects the Bronx with Queens

    Verrazano Narrows Bridge, which connects Brooklyn with Staten Island

    Throgs Neck Bridge, which connects the Bronx with Queens

    Henry Hudson Bridge, which connects Manhattan with the Bronx

    Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge, which connects Brooklyn with the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens

    Cross Bay Veterans Memorial Bridge, which connects Broad Channel Island in the middle of Jamaica Bay with the Rockaway Peninsula and mainland Queens

    The MTA is also raising tolls on the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, which connects Brooklyn with Manhattan and the Queens Midtown Tunnel, which connects Queens with Manhattan

    I hope this information is very helpful.

    Good luck

    relies upon the place you're in Queens. As of December thirtieth, 2010 at 2am, listed right here are expenditures for tolls. Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, Throgs Neck Bridge and Robert F. Kennedy Bridge is now $6.50 one that is $13.00 the two procedures. once you're vacationing between the Rockaways Inlet in Queens and Bronx, you're able to to pay go Bay Bridge toll of $3.25 one way or $6.50 the two procedures. You paid one toll before everything. once you coming back to Queens from Bronx, you paid back.
