Message: <blockquote data-quote="T. MIKE SMITH" data-source="post: 4376865" data-attributes="member: 44552"><p>In Texas- when each road is paid for the toll stops- I-30 between Dallas and Ft Worth was a turnpike in the 80's when I worked there some. When I move there in 1998 the toll had ended. I think Oklahoma was set up that way, but they wormed around and made it as long as any turnpike still has debt, all tolls continue- they just keep building more turnpikes, so they never get paid for. Does this stop any incentive to build like I-40 or I-35 was built, without a toll? There is a lot of conversation on the Lee Matthews show, KTOK 5-8 weekdays about how crooked the Turnpike Authority is.</p></blockquote><p></p>
