TxDOT's Smoking Gun

RECEIVED Tue., June 1, 2004

Austin Chronicle,
   TxDOT's "Toll Finance 101" proves to be a smoking gun ["For Whom the Road Tolls," News, May 21]:
   Look at www.texastollways.com/resourcelib.shtml, part three, titled "Toll Finance 101," page 10.
   It shows TxDOT's plan to force drivers on toll roads by:
   1) limiting free alternatives;
   2) avoiding frontage roads (or using discontinuous frontage roads); and
   3) not providing new free-access roads.
