Toll Increase Predicted For Bay Span Plans
Sacramento reports state toll officials warn that proposed changes to Southern Crossing approaches could push tolls above 34 cents. Calculations show one plan adding 4.19 million and another 9.12 million in costs, potentially raising the borrowing total past 250 million and tolls over 35 cents for the Bay Bridge and Southern Crossing. Supporters argue amendments to limit tolls at 25 cents face legislative action. Alameda council plans to drop part of the Eastshore Freeway to reduce overall crossing costs by about 38.85 million.
