To help motorists update their IPASS technology to the new stickers that are replacing plastic transponders, there will be three (3) IPASS on Demand events in northern Illinois that will be held before the end of the year.
Please mark your calendars for the event closest to you:
- November 7 in Rockton: American Legion, 221 West Main Street (Co-host- Rockton Mayor John Peterson)
- December 3 in Machesney Park: Village Hall, 300 Roosevelt Road (Co-host- Machesney Park Mayor Steve Johnson)
- December 16 in Kirkland: Resource Bank, 414 Main Street (Co-host- Kirkland Village President Ryan Block)
All events will take place from 3:00 PM until 7:00 PM.
Officials from the Illinois Tollway will be on hand at these events to help people transfer over to the new sticker technology and ensure people can make the switch without disruption to their IPASS account activity. Along with providing this service, the tollway officials can help people with questions they may have about their IPASS account and with ‘Pay by Plate’ issues.
Once activated, the sticker tag can be used on the Illinois tollway and on E-Z Pass roadways in other states within 24 hours of activation. There is no deposit required for the sticker and the $10 transponder deposit that was paid when a transponder was purchased will be transferred to the new account when it is activated.
Plastic IPASS transponders will continue to work and will not expire until the date listed on the unit.
