Toll Road Update

Just what you wanted to read about on a Tuesday afternoon, we know. But these toll roads, the gripe of many a Central Texan, seem to be pretty inevitable. The Austin Business Journal says that the TxTag will be the statewide-compatible tags to be used here in the Austin area. The TxTag website has a pretty map of the upcoming Austin-area toll roads and the sites for the future toll plazas. You can even go ahead and try setting up a tolltag account, if you like. . . okay, okay, we know you're dreading it as much as we are. It's hard to fake excitement over these toll roads.

I never realized exactly where the toll roads were before, but I've always heard the anti-toll people complain about the money from the tolls going to Williamson County. Well, most of those toll roads look to be in Williamson County, don't they?

I always was under the impression it was some of the developments in the southwest that were getting hit the hardest.
