Holcomb Says No Tolls In Indiana Highways

INDIANAPOLIS — Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb says he won’t impose new tolls on Indiana’s interstate highways while in office.

 

Holcomb was required by the 2017 law to provide the tolling plan.

 

On Thursday he sent to the State Budget Committee a tolling plan created by the Indiana Department of Transportation, but in a letter to lawmakers he said fuel tax and vehicle registration fee increases approved by the General Assembly last year will sufficiently fund the state’s current road construction projects.

 

Highway revenues are projected to start dropping after 2025.
