I read that their target price for this was $320 million, which includes a connector from 25 to the "new" Sagamore bridge. And the eminent domain compensation to all of the private property owners whose land these projects will cross.

I'm thinking $3.20 billion is more realistic.

$320 million won't even cover the court challenges, from environmental groups, NIMBY-ists, and all of the others who'll run right up to Boston to file the Federal court claims.

I wonder if they even ran this plan, and the "toll" idea, past the State Reps and Senators from the Cape districts? You know, the folks whose constituents will be paying that toll 10 months out of 12.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
