A Stupid Idea Dies
The Maine Turnpike Authority will not undertake a study of whether tolls should be collected on Interstate 295 and on Interstate 95 north of Augusta.I'm glad the governor made his views known quickly and well. I love seeing a potential tax fade away. It's so rare in Maine - something to be savored.The turnpike authority’s board of directors voted unanimously Friday against a resolution for the $40,000 study, according to authority spokesman Dan Paradee.
The resolution by the authority's board said it "does not consider it prudent to commit its resources and funds” to the study given Gov. John Baldacci's opposition.
