inform ecaotist stoufivjlsslribune on hwy407 prices are going up just six months after torys sold highway to private interests the canadian automobile association is outraged that rates on the 407 toll highway are being raised less than six months after it was sold by the harris government i just as the caa predicted in april tolls ori the 407 are being hiked said susan deryk caa central ontario spokesperson this is outrageous the company operating this road is raising rates even though it estimates it will collect more than 100 million in revenues next year alone with only 30 million of that going to operating and maintaining the highway starting sept 27 fees will increase for all vehicles using the highway dur- off peak times including weekends and holidays off peak times are considered week days from 10 aim to 3 pm and 7 pm to 11 pm on weekendsand holidays it is6arnt9 11 pm the rate increases are light vehicles cars vans and light trucks eight cents per kilometer up from

interests said deryk it was obvious that the purchasers would raise tolls but it is distressing that it is happening- so quickly it appears the owners of thehighway are trying to determine what the backlash will be from motorists before hiking the tolls across the board the highway is owned by financial interests in quebec and their partners in spain according to deryk motorists in ontario already pay more than 35 bil lion a year tothe provincial govern ment in fuel tax arid registration fees which should be used to finance cpn- structipn of new roadways and the maintenance of existing roads the caa protested the sale because it increases the life of tolls to 99 years after the government promised the tolls would be removed once the high way was paid for v the governments last
