[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which of the Maryland or Virginia senators will not block this in Congress? <crickets> And even if DC were ever to do it, they wouldn't do 295 because of wards 7 & 8. [b]They'd do the 14th Street Bridge & the TR bridge[/b].[/quote] Not in a million years. The feds wouldn't allow it. The DC business community is probably smart enough to oppose it, too. DC is extremely reliant upon VA businesses and VA residents. Throwing up a barrier like that would only hurt DC.[/quote] Virginia uses tolls all the time and somehow it magically works. [/quote] Virginia is authorized to toll certain interstates by the feds. DC too can charge tolls to increase the number of lanes like Virginia did with 495. They can also charge single occupant vehicles on HOV roads like Virginia did with 66. [/quote]
