HARTFORD — The state Bond Commission on Wednesday moved Connecticut a step closer to electronic tolls on the state’s highways and four lane routes. The commission authorized a $10 million study to look at tolling, prices, which roads could be tolled and how much money could be made. The state estimates tolling could bring in as much as $1 billion a year. "The undeniable truth is that our Special Transportation Fund needs a new, reliable revenue source," said Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, who ordered the study. "While Connecticut made important adjustments to the STF in recent years, those fixes only addressed our immediate, short-term concerns," Malloy said.
