Our post about the approval of rates for the new toll lanes on part of I-70 generated some strong reactions among readers.
One reason: The top price, which had previously been announced as $30, will actually cost drivers $40 thanks to a $10 surcharge.
Plenty of folks feel the fees for the lanes, which are expected to open in December, are excessive.
This one, however, thinks charging anything for them is wrong, based on his experience in another state. Here’s what he had to say.
When news happens, Westword is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $50,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community. If Westword matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.

This is BULLSHIT. In Massachusetts you can use the shoulder or “Breakdown Lanes” for Free during peak traffic. A big Fuck Off to whoever is charging a fee for this.
