If the Godwin Dr Extended Alternative is selected as the preferred alternative, the project should be built as a managed toll facility. Providing unrestricted access during peak rush hour will not improve travel conditions in the corridor. Toll revenue can be used to support transit in the corridor and help pay for part of the construction costs.
