Under the terms of
the legislation proposed by the Trenton Politicians our
great-grandchildren will be forced to cope with exponential toll
increases on the Garden State Parkway and New Jersey Turnpike. Parts
of the Garden State Parkway in Cape May County have been toll free
as far back as 1950, yet under the terms of this bill, tolls could
be imposed on Cumberland and Cape May motorists using the parkway
for the first time in history.
South Jersey
should not tolerate this reckless scheme.
This is an
unacceptable quick fix policy choice that will only serve to benefit
the foreign companies that bid on the toll roads, while saddling
motorists with the long term costs of ever higher toll increases. We
should put the interests of New Jersey drivers ahead of the Chinese
Communist and other foreign-controlled corporations that want to
control our toll roads.
