Young Opposes Toll Road Proposal in Missouri
State Rep. Robert E. Young called on the Missouri Good Roads and Streets Association to help defeat a proposed constitutional change allowing highway funds to back toll road bonds. He argued voters will reject diverting the highway user fund to guarantee toll bonds, noting a past Supreme Court ruling against toll road funding and citing ongoing Route 71 improvements as shifting priorities. He blamed Gov. Warren Hearnes, Senate leader Earl Blackwell, and the oil lobby for previous bond plans failing, which would have funded up to 500 million in road bonds to raise highways to interstate standards.
