Be prepared... the cost of crossing the Golden Gate is about to go up

Yup, a toll increase is set to take effect on July 3.

Here's the scoop from SF Gate:

For those without FasTrak, the bridge’s automatic license plate scanner — which snaps a photo of license plates and mails an invoice, even to out-of-state motorists — will go from $7.50 to $7.75.

The current FasTrak rate will remain unchanged. For now.
