"I couldn't possibly fail to disagree with you less."
3 May 2005Entrance, stage leftIt's rather a long distance — 22 miles — between the west end of the Turner Turnpike at I-35 in north Oklahoma City and the next gate, in Wellston. Construction will begin next year on a new gate that splits the distance, to be built on Hogback Road, which passes under the Turner east of the Indian Meridian south of NE 164th Street. Still undetermined is the amount of toll to be charged; for passenger cars, the 22-mile stretch to Wellston costs a buck, minus a nickel if you use PikePass. Posted at 8:12 AM to City SceneI know several people who took almost an hour longer than they should have to get somewhere. Now they'll only take 20 minutes or so. However, I don't understand turnpike pricing logic. Is it market-driven or does it actually reflect cost? (Course that may be because it's illogical.)
