State Senator Andrew Chesney is set to host an IPASS on Demand event in Genoa, Illinois. The event, scheduled for Tuesday, June 24, will feature a mobile team from the Illinois Tollway. It aims to assist residents with transitioning from plastic transponders to new sticker technology.

"We have seen a tremendous response to these events, and I will continue to host them across the 45th District as long as the demand is there," said Chesney. "As the Tollway transitions away from plastic transponders, these events help drivers easily make the switch to the new sticker technology."

Illinois Tollway officials will be present at the event to facilitate this transition and address any questions related to IPASS accounts or 'Pay by Plate' issues. The event will take place at Genoa City Hall from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM and is co-hosted by Genoa Mayor Jonathan Brust.

The newly activated sticker tags can be used on both Illinois tollways and E-Z Pass roadways in other states within 24 hours of activation. No deposit is required for the stickers; however, any $10 transponder deposit previously paid will transfer over once a new account is activated.

"Those who plan to attend should bring their plastic transponders inside with them and also make note of their license plate number," added Chesney. "This will help ensure quick service."

For more information about these free events, individuals are encouraged to contact Lori at lyates@sgop.ilga.gov.
