Are people-operated Toll Booths going the way of Blockbuster Video Stores in the future? It seems that may be an option on the Spaulding Turnpike. According to usnews.com, The New Hampshire Department of Transportation held public meetings on the topic this week. According to usnews.com If you are interested in checking out the presentation, the materials will be available on the New Hampshire Department of Transportation’s website. There are two toll plazas on New Hampshire Route 16 that are proposed to be converted to all-electronic.
They are about 12 miles apart from each other. I guess if you don’t have an EZPass, you should get one now, just in case the plan gets approved. Of course, it will take time to convert the toll plaza and remove the administration building. I can’t believe I am nostalgic for toll booths. I mean I have gotten directions from toll workers in the past and I enjoyed paying the toll occasionally for the car behind me.
