State Sen. Dave Syverson (R-Cherry Valley) and State Rep. Joe Sosnowski (R-Rockford) are partnering with the Illinois Tollway on Sept. 17 and Sept. 26 to help motorists update their I-PASS technology to the Sticker Tags that are replacing plastic transponders.

An I-PASS ON DEMAND event is scheduled from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., Sept. 17, at the Village Hall, 201 W. Diggins St. in Harvard.

Another I-PASS ON DEMAND event is scheduled from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Sept. 26 at the Community Building Complex of Boone County, 111 W. First Street in Belvidere.

Participants are reminded to bring their driver’s licenses AND their license plate numbers to present to Illinois Tollway officials. They are also advised to be prepared for wait times that may occur.

Illinois Tollway officials will help people transfer to the new sticker technology without disruption to their I-PASS account activity. Tollway officials will also help with questions individuals may have about their I-PASS accounts 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 Tag and the $10 transponder deposit will transfer to the new account when it is activated.

For more information about these events, contact Sen. Syverson’s office at (815) 987-7555.
