Airports agency terms itself ally of toll road users, Washington Examiner, August 17, 2011

By:Examiner Staff Writer

The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority is now calling itself the champion of Dulles Toll Road commuters, who may end up paying $18 for a round trip on the toll road by 2023. 

The authority, which enraged local and state officials when it voted to build an underground station at Washington Dulles International Airport in April even though it cost taxpayers an extra $330 million, now says it has done all it can to cut costs on the nearly $7 billion rail project and is begging state and federal governments for more money.
