turnpike

the fairs went up 41%

Bastards…and the road will still be f up…boy i am glad i got to drive to lancaster a couples times a month now

fawk pa roads :bash:

OHIO roads are worse off bitch!

no way, straight and pot hole free :booty:

How long are you in Ohio for? 2 weeks? then where you going?

thats why they ohio is in the midwest…dont be going down to kenticky picking up on some inbred chicks

I honestly cannot say how long i will be in cincy…

from what i heard tonight, i will be working here atleast 50-60 hrs a week and then off to oregon :dunno: full details yet :frowning: im just going w/ the flow for right now.

its not that far at all to visit and whore up the town for a few days :slight_smile:

they need banged too :embarassd

i am goin try to come up to visit…and meet up with some cinci people …like blazin pink and girlie civic :x:

wiat a min. I;m like lost. Are you going to be there longer than 2 weeks? espeically since you are talking about people visiting you there :dunno:

I’m sure this is just temporary. After all, just like they said when they built the road, there will only be tolls until the road is paid for. :rolleyes:

I want to see numbers on Rt 43. How many people are actually using this road? I can’t believe that it made financial sense building into the Mon Valley - I think it was political. Now if they build the section from Jefferson to the parkway, I could see that being used. But how many people are going to get screwed like the houses they tore down in Jefferson area? Eminent domain just seems wrong except maybe in specific, limited cases.

>$0.02 worth :gives:

ez pass…

Emminent Domain ia a easy way for the govt to steal your house…look at all the bussiness downtown the mayor took for the 5th and forbes shit…

This string hits a nerve with me.

I think the PA Turnpike is one of our most mismanaged State Agencies in PA.

A 40% increase in revenues!!! How could that be necessary?

We have the most expensive toll roads in the nation, and in the worst condition. just ask the most experienced on the subject…truck drivers.

Let me get on my soapbox now:

Everyday on my way home from work, I drive by the Turnpike Commision building on 66 in Youngwood/New Stanton. The lawn is mowed 2 to 3 times per week, in two directions. No it’s not a MLB field or PGA golf course, it’s the grass in front of a partially occupied turnpike office building. Why the large building? Why the excessive lawncare and landscaping? This property was seeded and landscaped, then had the sod removed and was reseeded the next season. Always brand new equipment, much more than necessary. I would love to see an audit of the Turnpike’s books. All that excess and mismanagement of funds needs policed.

Is the turnpike under the juristiction of PennDOT? Perhaps this would be a good inquiry item for the State’s Attorney General’s office for an audit request.

I just paid $1.25 to drive from New Stanton to Monroeville, my gravel driveway is a smoother ride.

Any guesses as to what the turnpike takes in tolls daily now? (C’mon Shaggy if anybody can find it online you can)

fuck the turnpike. it must be managed by Smurphy in secret…

thats ridiculous, The turnpike can lick my swamp ass :rolleyes:

43 is worthless. not enough people go to brownsville to make the road worth it. its nice going to C3 mall from school, but any other time, i go home 70 –> 79 cause no matter what stop and go traffic on 51 sucks balls
