Types of Transponders
Locally or Regionally, RiverLink Keeps You on the Go
The RiverLink system offers you two different transponders to choose from: the RiverLink local transponder and the RiverLink E-ZPass transponder. Both transponders qualify for the lowest toll rates when crossing the Louisville-Southern Indiana tolled bridges, and both are eligible for the frequent–user discount when used on a passenger vehicle registered to a personal account in good standing.
Which Transponder Works Best for You?
If you mainly travel locally, the RiverLink local transponder is all you’ll need. If you travel regionally or want to move your transponder from vehicle to vehicle, you may wish to purchase a RiverLink E-ZPass transponder.
