Report: Tolls To Be Considered For Routes 78, 80, 195, 287 & 285

toll boothA report given to Gov. Chris Christie suggested that five heavily traveled New Jersey Highways could become targets for tolls so the state’s Transportation Trust Fund does not run out of money, according to a report in The Daily Record. The Jan. 22 report said tolls will be considered for Route 78, Route 80, Route 195, Route 287 and Route 295. Revenue from the state’s gasoline tax will just cover an estimated $895 million debt payment that must be made by the fund in July 2011. The report made six general recommendations about how to increase transportation funding, including the tolls and having voters consider an increase in the state’s gasoline tax. Star Ledger

  1. just downloaded it and now i realize that many bus are not on the list. on the old version you can get it in the white pages but now its only in the yellow pages and if the merchant didnt pay for it then its not there. i should have stayed with the old one. lots of people are going to be unhappy and then ill bet the advertisers will stop for the next year.

  2. Call him back, he is taking NJ back to the dark ages, a trip to NY will take another 20 minutes, and another $4.00. He is an emperor without clothes a politician without direction, the enabler of Dweck.
    He won out of default & disgust with Corzine & Obama, he has no platform or naything for us to gain from.
    He is going to add $1000.00 unemployment tax for each employee, tolls on more roads,what difference is it how you name a tax, a tax is a tax.
