Renewed support emerges for controversial I-77 south toll lanes

Renewed support for the I-77 south toll lane project in Charlotte emerges as municipalities like Huntersville, Cornelius, and Monroe reverse opposition due to a state budget mandate requiring reimbursement. The Charlotte Regional Transportation Planning Organization (CRTPO) will vote on reinstating the project in late September, with Waxhaw and some officials advocating for traffic relief, while Mecklenburg County, Matthews, and Davidson are expected to oppose it.
