State Corporation Commission Recommends Toll Hike

According to a story by Hank Silverburg of WTOP Radio, it could get much more expensive to travel the 14 miles from Leesburg to Dulles. WTOP reports that staff at the State Corporation Commission recommend a toll increase to $4.80 for the Dulles Greenway by 2012.

The story also says that Rep. Frank R. Wolf, R-Va., is asking the SCC to hold off on formal approval until the General Assembly can review the decision.

Read more about the Toll Road Investors Partnership II, L.P. (TRIP II), owner of the Dulles Greenway, filing for a toll rate hike, as well as the executive summary of the application. For more information on the Dulles Greenway, visit their Web site at www.dullesgreenway.com
