SR 520 is going to be tolled, the whole thing, not just the bridge

The gas tax bill, SB 5801, has passed both the House and Senate. 520 will be tolled, the whole thing, not just the bridge. At first, just the Senate version had tolled but the House added it, too.

It will take some time to have transportation commission hearings for the amount of tolls and to build the toll gantries, but it is coming.

The toll is such a bad idea. It will hurt UW and those who live south of the Montlake exit. Even taking a short trip from I-5 to the Montlake exit will cost you. Crazy.
