HARRISBURG, Pa. -- It will now cost you more to drive on the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

Tolls went up 6 percent Sunday, but it won't stop many people throughout the state from traveling.

Sue Brookes from Feasterville, Pa., said, "It starts to hurt every now and again, but overall I think for the money it's still the best way getting back and forth across the state."

Officials with the PA Turnpike Commission said the change in price goes toward rebuilding and widening the turnpike.
