Who owns Texas toll Roads?
The Texas DOT’s Toll Operations Division (TOD) develops, operates, and maintains the over 250 miles of toll roads located in the state’s major metropolitan areas. But as of 2003, many of Texas’s 25 toll roads are owned by public-private partnerships.
TOD provides toll system design, integration, implementation, maintenance, oversight, analysis, reporting, and coordination of business and financial services with internal and external stakeholders to ensure the cost-effective and efficient operation of TxDOT-operated toll roads.
Additionally, TOD is also responsible for TxTag back office operations including the following, TxTag marketing and website, TxTag and Pay By Mail accounts, TxTag Call Center/Customer Service Center and storefront locations, violations, collections, courts, regional mobility operations support, and interoperability coordination with other local and state toll authorities.
