toll charges
The Indian Nation toll road---what would be the charge for a travel trailer/tow vehicle from Henryetta to Hugo? I've never heard of this route before. Thanks...

There are a few toll roads in Oklahoma, and Kansas.
Much of I-35 across Kansas is a toll road. Kansas Turnpike
Much of I-44 from the Texas border to the Missouri border is a toll road. And the Indian Nation Turnpike as you mentioned. Oklahoma Toll Roads
The toll process is moving away from toll booths where you pay cash.
Automated sensors which activate direct billing if the vehicle has a toll device (We have three - NTTA Toll Tag for Texas (OK & KS), Sunpass for Florida and EZ-Tag for IL-Mass/ Maine-NC
Your account already has basic information on your vehicles and link to a payment via credit card or direct bank transaction.
When you pass through a toll booth, the system automatically charges the toll and that's it as far as you are concerned.
The other technology uses optical recognition of your license plate and a bill is sent to the address where the vehicle is registered. Most toll authorities charge a higher fee for vehicles which to not have automated sensors and accounts.
One WARNING - toll bridges are very often not linked to other systems, and may require cash tolls. Bridges are exempt from the 2011 national law over interoperability (for which the full implementation has been pushed back again).
Normal fees are 1x toll amount for a two axle vehicle, 2x for three axles, 4x for four axles - such as a truck towing a TT or a 5er, or a motorhome with a toad.
We do not use toll roads while towing, but do use them in some places where it makes sense - without the trailer.
Personally, I do not need to use toll roads except near north east Oklahoma (I-44)
In that area of the state of Oklahoma south of I-40, I use US-75/ US-69. Or if east of the Turnpike, I use US-271 or US-259 or OK-2 - all are slower than the Turnpike, but heck, I'm an old retired fart and not in a hurry.
