The Office of Gov. Chris Christie announced the suspension of tolls on the northbound Garden State Parkway and the westbound Atlantic City Expressway beginning at 6 a.m on Sunday.

The decision was made to facilitate travel for those leaving coastal areas of New Jersey in advance of Hurricane Sandy, according to a press release.

Tolls will be suspended until further notice on the northbound Garden State Parkway from Cape May to the Driscoll Bridge and on the full length of the westbound Atlantic City Expressway, the release stated.
