===Other plans=== The NJTA plans to widen the Newark Bay Extension from four to six lanes. This would involve replacing 29 bridge structures, including the Newark Bay Bridge, as they are in poor condition, functionally obsolete, and not designed to be widened. Construction on the first phase of the project is expected to begin in 2026 and to be completed sometime between 2032 and 2034, with the other three phases currently undetermined.<ref name="improvement projects"/> There are also plans to widen the Western Spur from four lanes to six lanes, which would involve replacing many bridges, including the Harry Laderman Bridge. Long term plans call to convert the turnpike to [[Open road tolling|all-electronic tolling]], with the ticket system being replaced by [[video tolling|license plate tolling]] for drivers not using E-ZPass. This would require demolishing conventional toll plazas in the process. There are also plans to extend the HOV lane past exit 13, as well as to replace a overpass carrying traffic at exit 17, as it has deteriorated significantly.<ref>{{cite web |title = Proposed 2020 Capital Improvement Program |publisher = New Jersey Turnpike Authority |url = https://www.njta.com/media/5179/proposed-2020-capital-improvement-program.pdf |access-date = March 14, 2022 }}</ref> Additionally, there are plans to replace the four lane wide Delaware River Bridge on the Pearl Harbor Memorial Extension with new twin three-lane twined [[cable-stayed bridge]]s, with construction on this expected to begin sometime after 2030.<ref name="improvement projects"/>
