The announcement was made not in any board decision, or in a press release, or in any presentation to an IBTTA conference, and there's no RFP yet.

New York state comptroller says extra Federal funding may reduce need for Thruway toll hike, hits ORT projects


New York State Comptroller Thomas P DiNapoli says in an audit of proposed toll increases by the New York State Thruway Authority (NYSTA) that the authority is underestimating the federal grants it can obtain from USDOT. The toll increases, he says, should be reconsidered. DiNapoli says NYSTA should be able to "conservatively" bank on getting $125m over five years 2008-2012 from the feds, whereas the NYSTA staff are only counting on $4.9m/year. He thinks they are missing out on $100m. 1602 words  read more »
