Private Funds Wanted for Ronald Reagan Extension

Private funds sought for Ronald Reagan extention [sic]
GwinnettHerald.com - GA,USA
"Connecting Ronald Reagan Parkway to I-85 is the subject of a request for proposals issued by the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners. ..."

I remember when Ronald Reagan Parkway was first designed, it was supposed to go all the way to I-85, but it ends at Pleasant Hill Road. Now they are trying to get private companies to help develop it to I-85, with that section a toll road. It seems like it starts out as a temporary toll situation to pay for the road section, but the problem I foresee is that even when the road is finally paid for, a toll road tends to stay a toll road. Blechh.

UPDATE: for more information on this, see Susan Gast's AJC post from 30 June 2008
