How many more meetings can they have? Every time we turn around they have another meeting. When are they going to start listening and then act. This is just like all the rest of them, more pandering yet nothing will be done. We need to pack this meeting and voice our disgust over the tolls and the proposed toll increase.
NO GRAND ISLAND TOLLS
Another meeting from the incumbents about tolls October 4th at 6:30 pm
Meeting to address safety and rehabilitation of the Grand Island Bridges Assemblyman Sam Hoyt (D – Buffalo, Grand Island) and Town Supervisor Peter McMahon will hold a public meeting on Thursday, October 4th at 6:30 pm at Grand Island Town Hall, 2255 Baseline Road to discuss the Grand Island Bridges. Hoyt and McMahon will be joined by Erie County Legislator Michele Iannello and New York State Thruway Authority Buffalo Division Director Thomas Pericak, as well as other Thruway Authority and Grand Island representatives.
On the agenda
On the agenda for the meeting is the upcoming 2008 construction project to re-deck the northbound South Grand Island Bridge and addressing the condition of both bridges in the wake of the Minneapolis bridge collapse. Discussion will also include the present day traffic congestion caused by the tolls and the impact of their removal or relocation in order to alleviate traffic tension. Hoyt said, “This is a meeting that will cover three important issues and I encourage residents to come out and voice their concerns and suggestions.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackI will be there. The bridges look terrible. Having lived in another part of the country for eight years I can tell them, it’s not like this in other places and many staes have low tolls or are toll-free. I drove across west virginia and I paid $1.50 for driving over 300 miles of well-maintained roads.
Thank you Jen, see you there.
