"On Tuesday night, leaders of the bridges project want to know what the public thinks about tolls, and how they can make it easier for low-income drivers in Indiana and Kentucky.There is a public meeting planned for Tuesday evening. One was also held Monday in Clarksville.Leaders of the project want to give people a chance to understand it, look over the plans and hear measures being considered that could make it easier on low-income drivers.At Monday's meeting, some drivers, unhappy with the soon-to-be reality of paying a bridge toll, spoke out.\u00A0\u201CMy perception of what's happening in here is this is what we're going to do, this is how it's going to be done. Here it is. You accept it. You can leave a comment and be happy,\u201D said Jeffersonville resident Lisa Scott.But leaders say they are considering everyone's comments and encourage people to come to the meeting so they can work together to get a handle on how the project should go.Indiana Department of Transportation spokesman Will Wingfield says tolls are expected to be $1 for passenger vehicles that cross daily and $2 for vehicles that cross less often.They're planning to give out free transponders to drivers, which track how often a car or truck crosses a toll bridge.\u00A0\u201CThose target rates are for traffic using transponders. It's the easiest way to collect toll revenue because there's a prepaid account and as part of our commitments here we're looking at making the minimum balance low, so it's easier to take advantage of this,\u201D said Wingfield.The meeting will be at the Kentucky center for African-American Heritage Louisville.It will be from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m.The Clark Memorial Bridge and Sherman Minton bridge will not be tolled."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
