ParticipantSince most Coronado residents won’t use the tunnel – why not fund the tunnel with tolls on the tunnel -so those that use it, pay for it?
That’s the way the bridge was paid for.
I’m old enough to remember pre-bridge days. When I was a kid we’d go to the Hotel Del for the occasional “special occasion” brunch – and take the car ferry. The bridge was built, the car ferry eliminated, and tolls paid for the bridge.
I understand that the residents benefit, from the tunnel by reduced traffic… But so do the North Island workers – no stop lights, etc.
But what do I know… I only go to Coronado to go to the Del or Chez Loma.

That would make too much sense. The whole tunnel thing is lie. What, the tunnel is like 20 years away. lol. Coronado was just addicted to the toll money that filled there city budget. Now that times are tough, they want “their” money back.February 23, 2009 at 9:42 AM #352886PadreBrian

ParticipantUCG, slum a little, and try Primavera (intimate and pleasant) & Peohes (great winelist).
Padre, I often think your idle hands are connected to an empty mind. You have removed all doubt. The state, and I believe the port authority got bridge revenue. The City of Coronado did not.
