Maybe they should consider putting a toll on 217 to reduce traffic...make it the beaverton -portland turnpike. It will also help pay for the work!!

If the toll that would be put on the 205 bridge would be used strictly for the farce that they want to replace the interstate bridge with, then I can see the point. But that is not what the money will be used for. They want to use the money for other things that do nothing for transportation. I live in Vancouver and work on my side of the river, so a toll will only affect me when I go to Oregon to spend money.Therefore, when they do place a toll on the 205 bridge, I will not be spending my money in Oregon any more. And I spend way more money in Oregon than what they would collect from me in a toll.
