I am with you 100%. I am surprised that ALL Hoosiers don't agree.

Well, that gets back to the discrepancy between northern and sounthern Indiana again.

The Toll Road is up in far north Indiana--basically used by cross country trucks/travelers,,,,AND PEOPLE IN NORTHERN INDIANA. The revenues from the 75 year lease (3+ billion dollars) will be used for transportation projects in the entire state.

SOOOOOOOO,,,,the people in Northern IN pay the vast majority of the tolls that are paid by Hoosiers--while only getting a slice of the road funds.

It's no wonder that many down state think it is a WONDERFUL idea....lol They pay virtually NONE of the tolls---but get a disproportionate slice of the pie.
