Local Officials Will Invest $25,000 in Battle against Maine Turnpike’s York Toll Plaza Plans

Seacoastonline.com reports that members of Think Again (the group opposed to relocation of the York toll plaza) “burst out in applause Monday night [January 9] after selectmen agreed to take $25,000 from their contingency account to prepare to take on the Maine Turnpike Authority at an upcoming state hearing on the York toll plaza.” The report adds, “The town has long held that the Maine Turnpike Authority has not provided enough evidence against the viability of a cashless, or all-electronic, tolling system. Instead, it’s building a plaza that includes electronic and cash booth tolling. . . .”
