FreightWaves.com quotes an attorney representing ATA, the American Trucking Associations, as stating the group plans to move “full steam ahead in the district court” on its constitutional challenge to Rhode Island’s trucks toll program now that an appellate ruling has upheld federal jurisdiction over the case. The article notes that the state’s lawyers have not commented on the possibility of their asking for a stay of proceedings while they petition the US Supreme Court to review the jurisdictional question.

A Syracuse.com editorial notes that the New York Thruway Authority is preparing to restore all 27 of its travel plazas by entering into a contract with one company that will renovate and operate the plazas over the next 30 years. The editors think travelers should contribute to the planning of the facilities and services they will use. To prime the idea pump, they offer a few suggestions of their own.
