Are there any other toll roads on a major US interstates in the country? I think I remember one in Florida years ago.
Tolling is how an entity gets paid for the construction and/or maintenance of a bridge if it doesn't have full funding.

If you allow them to build without full funding and now charge tolls that opens up the door for miss use. If we don't stop this then government will bleed us dry with tolls as this will be another slush fund for them to stick their hands in.

I think everyone is well aware of this, but... And this is my opinion, but infrastructure should be one area government spends money because.. Well tax dollars should be used for projects that benefit the people who pay taxes.
But when you see everything that the government spends money on then they build something that tax dollars should go towards and then they charge people to use it. They find money to do whatever they want, but don't have a problem milking the tax payers. I wonder if Ukraine pays a toll?
