Under the headline "Not everyone hates toll roads" Gary Hausdorfer CEO Cofiroute USA, the operations contractor at the 91 Express Lanes writes in the Washington Times today (Dec 9) as follows:

There is an especially misleading, ill-informed and - if we might editorialize - plain stoopid editorial on HOT lanes and tolling in The Washington Times November 1. Addressed to Virginia voters it attacks the McDonnell administration for "sticking stubbornly by its unpopular decision to convert Interstate 95 into one big toll road."

It cites a Quinnipiac University survey that, it says, found 52 percent of Virginias who "don’t want tolls."
