Tolls Projected—Connecticut's I-84...

First let me say I am a Connecticut resident and I certainly approve of all those of you that drive around Connecticut on your way north. This is a case of “Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded”. Yes our highways are over crowded for many reasons one of which are two Casinos that attract large numbers of cars from surrounding states. That said, when I head north I use the I 91, route 9 path. Takes me 15 minutes longer but much more enjoyable. I don’t recommend route 9 if you’re pulling a trailer, too many hills and curves. Connecticut which does not charge tolls is surrounded by states that all charge tolls. It’s only a matter of time and CT will join the party and charge all those that enjoy the white knuckle ride through our state.
