Toll road claim fuels District 128 toll bridge debate
Baytown area voters contend over a possible toll on the Fred Hartman Bridge as Briscoe Cain campaigns in the District 128 Republican primary against Rep. Wayne Smith. Cain promotes a petition opposing tolls linking Baytown and surrounding communities, while supporters call the claim untrue and the bridge not slated for toll status. Cain cites Highway 99 as the future toll corridor and notes the petition gathers signatures. Supporters say the 20 year old bridge will not become a toll road and advocate proactive measures against tolling.
