ISTM: tag mainline Thruway toll-free from the exit 25A on/off ramps to exit 24 off/on ramps in free travel zone. Tag ramps to/from 25A, 25, and 24 toll-free in direction of free travel but tolled in direction of tolled travel. (So for example a 25->24 trip or 24->25 trip, which would be tolled, would pass through the tolled ramps at 25.)
Looking at Mapquest Open, which distinguishes toll and non-toll segments visually, that's how it appears to be tagged already (along with the free travel route to/from I-88 to NY/I-890 at Exit 26). So it seems to be right.
