TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Democratic Governor Phil Murphy’s administration says New Jersey’s gas tax is going up 9.3 cents a gallon, a roughly 22% increase. The increase goes into effect on October 1.
It stems from a 2016 law that requires the state fund supporting bridge and road infrastructure maintain a $2 billion program annually. It also requires an annual adjustment to the fuel tax if receipts don’t meet that level.
