Answer
Commute times and toll costs vary with your exact start, destination, departure time, and whether you use toll routes, so there is no single figure for any city. Verify each specific trip with live mapping and the official toll calculator. Plano has direct DART rail service; Prosper and Celina do not have direct DART rail stations.
Explanation
Northern Collin County leans heavily on personal vehicles. Plano has DART rail service, including the Silver Line; Prosper and Celina do not have direct DART rail stations. See the official DART Silver Line information and DART maps for coverage and stops. Four factors to verify for your address: Routes - test your fastest routes plus a no-toll alternative at the times you would actually commute. Toll cost per trip - estimate it with the official NTTA Toll Calculator and apply your expected trip frequency to see the monthly impact. Road operator - toll facilities are run by different operators, so confirm which operator runs the specific road in your route and use that operator's estimator. Roadwork - check updated schedules from the responsible agency. NTTA is the source for the Dallas North Tollway extension; TxDOT is the source for US-380 projects.
