The Eastside Transportation Association will discuss proposed tolls on I-90 from 8-9:30 a.m. Wednesday, March 20 in Bellevue.

Discussing the issue will be panel members Lisa Belden, Co-Chair of No Tolls on I-90; Elizabeth Campbell, Director, The Democracy Workshop, No Interstate Tolls; Steve Marshall, Mercer Island resident; and Jim Horn, former state Senator, 41st District and former Mayor of Mercer Island

The 2012 Legislative direction and current WSDOT evaluation of tolls on I-90 to help fund the completion of SR 520 in Seattle has put the Puget Sound region in the center of a local and national debate on the concept of tolling Interstate Highways, and in particular, I-90 from Bellevue to Seattle.

The meeting is free and will be held at the office of Bellevue Master Builders, 335 116th Ave. SE.
