NTTA tolls increase in July

[ThreeFingerPete]

Bitching about tolls is kind of silly. The road didn't exist before, so if you'd rather not pay tolls then pretend they didn't build the road. At least you can enjoy the lightened traffic on the non-toll roads.

Would you say that it's ethical to continuously increase the tolls, then when traffic dies down because some can't afford to use them, increase tolls farther? Obviously to make up lost revenue.

Some things never change! One day it will be 5 bucks a toll, they will not stop until people quit using their fucked up roads.

The worst thing about George Bush is that the service road doesn't fucking go anywhere.

They always intended it to be a toll road didn't they? I thought they were just letting people drive it for free until they finished the whole stretch.

The limited access, but never the entire road. I think the fact that fewer people are using the roads is great. The NTTA will price themselves out of the market.


I've got a bill right now I need to fight them on (they didn't bill my tolltag and are charging me $26.50 + tolls for each transaction for roughly $600 total) that came about after the easy tolls were initiated.

Weren't both the GBTW and NDTW supposed to return to free public use after they were paid for?

however they probably counted on peeps forgetting this fact.

no, it was only after the massive growth that required the redesign were the cities and counties approached with the NTTA deal, and was held up for some time by the colony.

Its just like 35 is free now, but the original expansion deal had an upper layer that was all toll, and the amount of regular lanes wouldnt have expanded, and in some places would have been reduced

indians do it right
