MONTVALE, N.J. -- Officials in New Jersey could be pumping the breaks on a plan to raise toll prices yet again.The tolls are set to go up on the Turnpike and Garden State Parkway, starting next year, but Democrats and Republicans are pushing back.Just in time for Halloween, there is another scare for drivers in the Garden State. The Turnpike Authority, which operates the Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway, decided this week on a 3% increase in toll prices.
Senate President Nicholas Scutari, a Democrat, said lawmakers have been working to make New Jersey more affordable.'Cutting taxes, increasing homeowners' rebates, cutting fees across the board, so this is an unacceptable proposition,' Scutari said.Gov.
