It sounds like the private toll road issue is a bigger problem in NJ than it is in Texas.
The deal that was made when the turnpike was built; the tolls were suppose to be temporary. The tolls were in place only until the road was paid for. We have had governors run on the basis of taking the tolls down; because it was paid for. It has become a political pit.
Now, without our input, the turnpike is to be sold so we keep having to pay for it again and again and again.
I don’t know if you have paid attention at all to all the salvaging the Odyssey (OMR) has been doing. But ‘the contractors’ of the Odyssey (OMR) have been in negotiations for permission from Spain to salvage their shipwrecks. One of the things that has been stopping them is the initial capital. I can’t help but wonder if the push for Cintra to be the lease holder of the tolls is related to their ‘capital’ needed.
