Toll fares on the Los Cabos corridor increased by an average of 4.7% on April 13, following an annual rate review by Caminos y Puentes Federales (CAPUFE), the federal agency that manages Mexico’s toll highways and bridges. The adjustment applies to the only toll road in Baja California Sur, the highway connecting Los Cabos International Airport, San José del Cabo, and Cabo San Lucas.
The increases range from 2 to 6 pesos depending on the stretch of road. For passenger vehicles, the San José del Cabo to airport segment rose from 49 to 51 pesos (about $2.65 USD). The full San José del Cabo to Cabo San Lucas route now costs 93 pesos (roughly $4.85 USD), up from 89 pesos. The airport to Cabo San Lucas stretch saw the largest jump, climbing from 113 to 118 pesos (about $6.15 USD).
Longer Segments and Other Vehicles Also Affected
The longest segment, from Los Cabos International Airport to the area known as El Mangle, increased from 120 to 126 pesos (approximately $6.55 USD). Motorcycles and larger vehicles also face proportional increases across all segments.
CAPUFE said the added revenue will fund maintenance, operations, and infrastructure improvements along the route. The new rates replace fares that had been in place since January 2025, when a separate round of increases raised tolls by roughly 10 pesos on average across the corridor.
The Only Toll Road in Baja California Sur
The Los Cabos toll highway, formally called the Libramiento Aeropuerto Los Cabos, is the sole toll road in the state. It provides a direct connection between the airport (SJD), San José del Cabo, and Cabo San Lucas. The extension to Cabo San Lucas opened in 2015. The free alternative, the Transpeninsular Highway (Federal Highway 1), remains available but adds significant travel time during peak hours.
The 4.7% increase is part of a nationwide adjustment CAPUFE applied to autopistas and concession bridges across Mexico. This story was first reported by Gringo Gazette and HOY BCS.
