California 84.svg

Dumbarton Bridge links Palo Alto, East Palo Alto, and Menlo Park on the mid-Peninsula with Newark, Union City, and Fremont in the East Bay.

The current base toll is $7, charged in the westbound direction. Carpool vehicles with 2 or more persons can cross the bridge for $3.50 on weekdays between 5am - 10am and 3pm - 6pm. FasTrak is accepted for payment. Drivers who don't have FasTrak transponder can drive through the toll gate, and an invoice would be sent to the vehicle owner by mail for the toll. Drivers who don't use FasTrak and regularly cross the bridge would have tolls be invoiced monthly. The invoice can be paid online, by mail, or by cash at select locations.

A $0.50 discount is given for FasTrak users making a second toll crossing of the day during weekday commute hours (5-10am and 3-7pm).
