Gov Wolf proposes to eliminate gas tax

2. Tolls Are Better

but still seem to fall in densely populated areas disproportionally. Notice no talk of tolling I-99 or the US 322 stretch of interstate-like highway between Harrisburg and State College.

I like the state police collecting monies from communities that don't have organized police forces. That only seems fair but those folks have been living on the dole for so long they'll probably howl in protest.

PA needs to prepare for the electric vehicle switch which is bound to happen in the coming decades. The gas tax will be useless for funding roads at that point.

What we also need is some legislation that prohibits road building in counties with declining population/car registrations. Areas with declining population should actually have their state road systems shrink. Otherwise lots of road maintenance monies will be diverted away from areas with increasing traffic volumes to areas with very little or decreasing traffic.
