The citizens of Williamsport will benefit because most of the toll revenue will be collected from out-of-state thru-traffic.

Tourism is a decent industry here. Tolls on I-80 will retard the tourism industry.

While in Williamsport, visitors should be advised to also see nearby Ricketts Glen State Park on PA 487 (no toll)
Ricketts Glen is famous for it's many beautiful waterfalls.
Although approved as a National Park in the 1930s, federal funding fell through due to WW-II.

Tolls on I-80 will not deter tourists from visiting your attractions.
If anything, tolls will help keep out the travelling trailer-trash and other litterbug riff-raff.
