charitable

In western Massachusetts and also in Ontario Canada they talk of "holding a toll road," as in the announcement in a newspaper in Keene ON by one Elaine Kempt that "Keene Lions will hold a volunteer toll road on Friday, May 15, from 3 until 7pm at the four corners in Keene." A "toll road" in this sense is a road with charity collectors standing in the lanes asking motorists for donations for charitable causes as they wait at the traffic signal.
