Beware the toll booth in Illinois. Tolls are already way too high, especially if you don't have one of those transponders (in other words, double what those with them pay).
Now, because of needed improvements, the price for everyone, including those with transponders is going up starting January 1st. And, it is not going up just a little bit. Everyone will be paying almost twice as much.
That means those with transponders will go from 40 cents to 75 cents!! Those without go from 80 cents to $1.50!!!
Just one more reason to avoid Chicago and Illinois.
And, will they drop these increased tolls after the projects are completed. Fat chance of that. History shows that that just doesn't happen.
At least there are no tolls on Route 66 or the Lincoln Highway.
Just Another Illinois/Chicago Rip-Off!! --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
