I-77 toll lanes: Time saver or wallet drainer?

Racing past traffic on I-77 can cost you as much as $55 for a single trip if you don’t have a transponder—and even regular users are feeling the pinch as toll prices climb. While the NCDOT says these lanes are speeding up commutes for everyone, many locals are frustrated that profits go overseas and prices change every few minutes. Now, with plans to expand toll lanes further south, the state promises to cap rates. Are the time savings worth the extra cost, or should we rethink how we manage congestion? #Transportation #CharlotteTraffic #I77Tolls
