One of the reasons I no longer listen to 101.5 is because so many of their amateur "hosts" are militantly against leasing the turnpike.
Most of the airports in Spain have been privitized, and, believe me, Barcelona airport provides a much better experience than Filthy or Newark.

The New Jersey Turnpike will likely be one of the first roads in the Northeast to undergo some kind of operational change (most likely some kind of lease arrangement). The Pennsylvania Turnpike and NY State Thruway will also be among them.
What makes the NJ Turnpike so attractive for this sort of arrangement is that it carries an inordinate amount of two types of vehicles that are ideal sources of revenue: (1) trucks, and (2) long-distance travelers who drive through the entire state.
