NYS Thruway Authority Votes Yes to Move Forward on Toll Hike
11:47pm: Just seconds ago, the New York State Thruway Authority voted yes to move forward with a 10% increase in the 2008 budget that will increase NYS tolls as soon as January.
The Authority is planning another hike in 2009 and 2010 that will be voted on in April. The State Comptroller is in the process of auditing the Authority.
Our Local representative on that board, Jeff Williams, voted no.
