An excellent letter to the editor published in The Mercury about the many flaws of the Route 422 tolling plan. Making the busy highway a toll route would reduce little of the congestion, create a huge financial burden on commuters and create a government bureaucracy that will waste money. And all the talk about a commuter rail service is just a red herring. Tolling Route 422 would not make a passenger rail system any more likely. The plan is just another way to fleece taxpayers.
