Tolls Are a Double Tax

RECEIVED Tue., April 12, 2005

Dear Editor,
    Ms. Strayhorn is not entirely wrong in her assessment of the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority [“CTRMA Responds to Strayhorn: 'I Am Rubber. You Are Glue ...',” News, April 8]. First the bidding process for the toll way system has some questions that need to be answered. A former employee of Cintras becomes the governor's consultant. The toll system is really a double tax. We pay for the road and pay to ride on it.
