You can join the tolling conversation. Take our online survey now through November 30.
We know tolling could mean a variety of things for you. Perhaps you commute on 520 and want to know the future cost of your commute. Maybe you have some ideas about how funds raised by tolls should be spent. If you drive a different route around or across the lake, will tolling 520 lead to more congestion on your alternative route?
Your opinion will help shape how tolling is implemented in the 520 corridor. The 520 Tolling Implementation Committee will compile public comments on the tolling questions in a report to the governor and legislature in January 2009. Here are some initial questions to consider:
- Should there be tolls on the existing bridge to start building a new 520?
- Should both the 520 and I-90 bridges be tolled to pay for a new 520 and improvements on I-90?
- Should funding from tolls be used to expand transit service in this corridor?
- What incentives would encourage you to take transit or carpool rather than drive alone?
- Would you change your commute time to take advantage of a lower toll?
Upcoming open houses in November and committee meetings, along with other public events, will be listed under calendar of events. You may also want to check out tolling in the news or see what your local elected officials are saying about tolling. In addition, a public comment summary from the summer of 2008 is available.
Please send us your comments. You can submit your input electronically directly through this web site.
