Tolls on the Parkway are going up starting Monday! I can't wait! They're going up again in 4 years, and if your commute now is $1.20, it's going to be $2.60 by then. So if you're spending $60 a week now, it's going to be $130. Awesome. That's a nice 234% increase.

That thing has to be paid off by now :lol: They reduced their overhead and expenses by 50% by taking out half the toll plazas.

A big thanks to our wonderful governor who knows nothing other than how to take more of our money! And he wanted to raise the sales tax to 8% as well! :-x

If they'd just raise the tolls a little once in the while instead of a bunch every 20 years then it would not be such a BFD. Like a nickle ever 3 years or something. Something more inline with inflation. That is not unresonalbe to me.
