Public’s opinion unchanged on toll road

The citizens reaction to the latest proposed tollroad has been consistent since January 2013. Regardless of the proposed route, or the entire methodology being used to justify a new tollroad, not one single meeting nor the NCTCOG Feasibility Study has produced results that tell our represenatves that we believe any tollroad is a desired or practical solution to future transportation planning.

Please read these media reports on the current proposed tollroad and possible solutions to better use our tax dollars presented by one of the candidates for Lt. Governor.
