* Australia - Bridge toll plan: $20 to follow the buses
Here is the solution to choking gridlock for the wealthy and impatient: exorbitant tolls for the exclusive use of the Harbour Bridge's southbound bus laneSydney,New South Wales,Australia -The Sydney Morning Herald -July 5, 2007: -- Under a serious proposal from the former Roads and Traffic Authority director Ken Dobinson, the bus lane would be transformed into what has been dubbed a "Lexus lane". Drivers would pay staggered tolls of $5, $10 or even $20 to escape the traffic and zoom along with buses and taxis... Mr Dobinson said now was the perfect time to implement a High Occupancy Tolling - or HOT - lane system on the bridge, before the Harbour Tunnel goes cashless on Sunday...
