Toll road may be only answer for Beaver Valley Expressway

The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission will assess the results and decide if a traffic feasibility study is needed. Local officials push tolls as the fastest path to completion, with estimates placing total cost around 110 million dollars and a possible 1991 finish if funded by a toll plan. Some residents oppose tolls, arguing motorists would pay twice.
