IBR toll funding jumps to $1.5B as construction nears
Published 3 weeks, 1 day ago
Description
The Interstate Bridge Replacement Program has increased projected toll funding from $1.25 billion to $1.5 billion, with construction and tolling both set to begin in 2028. IBR officials briefed C-TRAN directors on the $14.4 billion megaproject, explaining why light rail will stop at the waterfront rather than extending to Evergreen Boulevard in the first phase. Rep. John Ley warns toll rates could climb higher than the current $1.55 to $4.70 range, while C-TRAN board members question light rail ridership projections versus current cross-river transit demand. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/ibr-briefs-c-tran-with-new-numbers-including-the-rise-in-projected-toll-funding/ #IBR #Transportation #ClarkCounty #Tolls #LightRail #Vancouver #WashingtonState #Politics #Infrastructure #CTRAN
