Since when are tolls allowed on Interstate highways?
Since forever. However they aren’t allowed on existing interstates unless they are being improved. Which is what is happening here. They are adding a bridge, raising the height of the bayway and adding lanes. So we pay a toll.

Is I-10 tolled anywhere else currently?

Quite a few states have tolls on interstates.
It was grandfathered in on roads that existed before they were interstates. Mostly in the North east.
The president made a change that now allows it.
..
Trump infrastructure plan to allow long banned interstate tolls.

I keep looking at the first 10 seconds at the diverging diamond intersection that is going in on the surface street there by what I presume to be I-10 going to the tunnel.
That's what is going in at the new Pecue interchange with I-10 in BR.

Good to see that .12/gallon infrastructure tax paying for roads. Hope every other Alabama baw is voting out any rep that voted for it.

Yep and 85% of the BP funds were put in the General fund.

Why. Isn't the gas tax that we already pay supposed to cover this?

Imagine that, the government finding new ways to piss away money.

I can only speak for Louisiana, but a huge chunk of gas tax doesn't go to roads.

Looks like no more Mobile Tunnel 
Like how the animation even had the Littoral Combat ships docked

If I take the same route that I do now I will have to pay a toll for the section of bayway I use.
The cause way may be fine, especially after they finish widening hwy 31 through Spanish fort.
Really I’m bitching to bitch especially considering we are over 5 years from any sort of toll. Hell who knows what the frick I’ll be doing in 5 years

Zero chance the government ever takes away a tax.

And yet plenty of stupid people here will support and knight for additional gas taxes.
But but but they’ll be dedicated funds
