Bill Radke talks to Ed Barry, the Toll Division Director with the Washington State Department of Transportation, about a new report (PDF) that recommends raising the price of the top toll on Interstate 405 past $10.
It was one of a series of recommendations to keep traffic flowing on the busy corridor. WSDOT has also conducted a study analyzing the effectiveness of I-405 tolling as the population in the region continues to grow.
