Solving traffic congestion through toll roads ignores the root cause issues and hurts everyone. Fundamental to American culture is the ability to travel freely from place to place unimpeded. Toll roads completely undermine this principal, and instead replace it with a tax and a tracking mechanism. If the goal is to solve congestion problems government should instead encourage business to locate in such a way to allow mass transit to function efficiently. Encourage centrally located downtown districts with vertical builds instead of massive sprawling campuses. This would allow useful mass transit and encourage employee freedom as all businesses are located together.
