SENATE COMMITTEE TO HEAR TRANSPORTATION FUNDING / SAKONNET-TOLL REMOVAL BILL

Hopefully tomorrow's Senate Finance Cmte hearing is the start of the final act of this Sakonnet tolls drama (links below). If working to do the common-sense thing of eliminating these tolls also results in a sustainable Statewide system of transportation-infrastructure funding, then at least some good will have come out of this unnecessary, unfair, unwise ordeal.
