Dulles Toll plaza

The Dulles Corridor Users Group, advocating for cost effective mobility has filed lawsuits in State and Federal court asking for a refund of $200 million in past overcharges on the Dulles Toll Road (Virginia Route 267). The group is also asking for the demolition of the toll plazas and for future operation of the former Toll Road as a free public highway. "Route 267 is the only full time tolled highway in the DC area and has been fully paid for," says Christopher W. Walker, founder of the Group. "It is not a cash cow for Dulles Rail, a subsidy for Dulles Airport, nor a source for upgrading western and southern access to Dulles, as the Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority intends. Virginia law requires cessation of tolls under these circumstances." Route 267 is scheduled to have tolls rise to $23 a round trip to securitize $4 billion in bonds for phases 1 and 2 of the Dulles Metrorail project.
