Boston Globe reports, “Sorry, Boston drivers. Your free ride through Connecticut could be ending. Two top Connecticut lawmakers are saying new tolls are inevitable. And a legislative committee there just narrowly endorsed a bill that would bring all-electronic toll collecting to the state, although the precise locations haven’t yet been decided.” The report adds, in Massachusetts, “The coalition known as Transportation 4 Massachusetts . . . is saying a bill from Senator Thomas McGee that would impose more tolls within Route 128 deserves consideration. . . . Meanwhile, Senator Karen Spilka filed legislation [S 1987] that would require . . . officials to study imposing all-electronic tolls on highways other than the Mass. Pike.”
