I am so sick of toll roads I know how to people in Dallas feel down here in Houston I am so sick of beltway 8 I can't stand beltway 8 toll road has to go I'm sorry
Now all we have to get them to do is build some more DPS facilities. 1.1 million population increase in the last 10 years, and very few new DPS stations. Spending 5 or 6 hours at a DPS facility for something that puts you in front of one of their people for 7 minutes is absolutely pathetic.
No shht! I was there Monday WITH an appointment! At 8:30 left at almost noon, was there Wednesday and then Friday again for a Fucking Drivers license. Did I mention they fucked up on my DL 🤦♂️, so now I have to talk with those idiots again. And god only knows what month of next year my appointment will be.
Once Toll Roads are implemented. They Never go away!! Guaranteed prices will increase!! 2045 !! Yea right... They will delegate that $$$ to other budget items... Tolls are here too stay!!
Express lanes that are used for bypassing congestion would make more since. So during rush hour people can pick their poison pay a toll or sit in traffic.
Wanna know what would be even cooler? A fucking train, that way your options are to consciously drive and probably get there a little faster or just ride the train and use the time how you want
Wait a second... aren't taxpayers footing the bill on the interest on the outstanding 9.5bn? I guarantee that payment is more than continuing maintenance costs would be down the line.
I may not necessarily be against the idea behind using toll roads for revenue generation purposes (such as as an alternative towards income taxes), though I believe only federal, state, or city governments should be given such a right (just like with taxation). Moreover, I'd rather prefer that these tolls wouldn't be too much more expensive than the cost that I'd need to spend in additional fuel to burn in order to find a route around these toll roads. I mean, mileage has been getting so much better for cars over the years that toll prices would need to remain low (such as a single dollar or less) in order to remain competitive. (That, or they could just surround entire cities with toll roads, so that there's no way past them.)

I totally agree with getting all the toll out of Texas.
Greedy rats 🐀 the toll makes 850 million a year for them
960 million a year actually.
I remember having to actually pay someone or drop coins in that thing. The good ol days haha
It will never be taken out. Ppl love money.
Dallas North Tollway was supposed to be “paid off” by 2005. Still a tollway.
Counties use toll money for what it was never intended for .

Beltway 8 is the prime cause of traffic in Houston. I needs to go away fast

Get rid of the license plates and tolls are gone!! You don't need them anyway also the expiration sticker on your windshield is unconstitutional.
I'm from south texas🤗
I almost killed myself with the stress of this debt
They are supposed to
this is a dumb idea, because roads come with maintanence cost, and you basically have to replace the road every 30 years.
this will not happen sorry
Rats
