Toll roads feeling the fuel-price pinch

Toll roads feeling the fuel-price pinch
8/1/08
Quote:
Traffic is decreasing on some toll roads around the nation and officials say it’s because of high fuel prices.
It’s happening in Texas, where dozens of toll roads and tolled metro loops are being designed and built to handle a steep increase in population and traffic.
The North Texas Tollway Authority, which operates the 30-mile President George Bush Turnpike in the North Dallas area, saw traffic decrease by 1.4 percent in May and 2.3 percent in June compared to those same months in 2007.
“Historically, we have seen slight decreases in traffic when fuel prices spike and that traffic adjusts as prices decline,” NTTA spokeswoman Sherita Coffelt told Land Line.
