Oh no! We are going hi-tech here! No tool booths, they will have some device to bill for road use. You will get a couple of free passes if you are unfamiliar with the area, tourist or new to the area, after that the bill will be in the mail.

Big Brother, he is here, alive and well in Austin TX. BTW, a toll road is never EVER paid for, and the fee never goes away, it might rise but it surely won't go down.

HMM, now that I think about it, what better place to have this happen than in the ultra blue zone known as liberal heaven, Austin TX!

I'm glad we live on the outskirts, maybe I will consider a move to Waco or Temple.

you're sure no toll booths, huh?

last summer i went around the east side of denver. it was 4 or 5 toll booths, and $12.00.

$12.00 seemed like alot to avoid the traffic on i-25.

in either case, the 4-tier interchanges, whether they're in denver, phoenix, los angeles, las vegas, or austin...etc are

oppressive.

The toll road in Dallas was paid for and the booths came down many years ago
