The Silver gets 52.6% of its funding from the Dulles Toll Road?

Wow!

Has anyone ever heard of a major transit project being 52.6% funded with road tolls? And mind you, this is only capital costs. We have yet to deal with the operating and maintenance subsidies which will run in perpetuity.

Is any money being spent on the Toll Road? I doubt it. It gets more raggedy every month. And the tolls increase annually (for now).

After this, we should never again see anyone ever howl about drivers being "subsidized".
