Why are tolls being considered, don’t my gas taxes pay for the roadway improvements?
Tolling is being considered on I-75 for two reasons. First, it serves as an additional funding source to gas tax revenues that have not been keeping pace with inflation and the need for transportation improvements. Second, tolls would manage traffic levels on the ETLs. Managing the traffic volumes on the ETLs provides a consistent level of service on those lanes and a reliable travel time.
