Has the loan been repaid?


Yes.

i have many many issues with the bridge..

the biggest:

there is absolutely no way whatsoever to account for the money they are taking in. You pay a round trip fare, they give you a return ticket, that they then take back when you cross...and then reuse that ticket.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but i do think that in the nearly 5 years that bridge has been there, i must say their employee turnover must be the lowest in the entire country.

On principle, i refuse to pay it, but i also dont cheat. So i part on the south side of the bridge and walk or get picked up whenever possible. I'd rather hand my $5 to a kid who wants some ice cream.

A numerical invoice should acompany all toll transactions and be accounted for daily. They should balance.
