Wyoming Lawmaker Wants Tolls on I-80Wyoming Lawmaker Wants Tolls on I-80
A Wyoming state lawmaker said one way to fix mounting maintenance costs on Interstate 80 in the state is to impose a toll on the road, the Casper (Wyo.) Star-Tribune newspaper reported Wednesday.
Based on projections, state Sen. Michael Von Flatern (R) said passenger cars might pay $12 to $15 to drive the entire 400-mile section of I-80 in the state, or about 3 cents a mile. Trucks would pay more, the paper reported.
Von Flatern said the road would pay for itself with a toll, the Star-Tribune said.
Drivers could expect more lanes, better maintenance and more snow plows on the highway, the paper reported.
