Yes they raised it from $10to $12 each way. And the discounted 24hour roundtrip goes from $14 to $17.

Supposedly it is to pay for the building of 2 new tunnels.

In the grand scheme of things I have less of a problem with tolls like that than general tax increases. We need the bridge, it has to be paid for.

And the trip across now is MUCH better than it used to be. Hadn't heard that they were gonna do 2 new tunnels. I thought they were stopping at the extra lanes.

We'll just need to keep a watch on them. It's like the tolls that used to be in Richmond on I-64. They were to pay for the road. Finally some legislator (I forget who) pointed out that the road had been paid for several times.

Now if we could just get rid of the tolls on the Powhite.
