I just saw an article in Dec 29th , 2017 Home Reporter. I think a lot of Bay Ridge /Dyker Heights Residents are unaware of this petition. As I am sure a lot of us are tired of paying a fortune for this bridge. I use it at least 3 times a week to see my grandchildren!

Bay Ridgites should have the same discounted toll fare Staten Island residents have! The bridge is on our neighborhood too, and I constantly commute to SI for work.

Way too expensive for residents resigning in the Brooklyn area, some people even pay the toll as much as the amount of days they attend college.

I work in Staten Island and live in Bay Ridge. High rents and high daily tolls make it seem as if New York no longer wants a middle class.

I think it is ridiculous that the toll keeps increasing indefinitely. Where is the money going?

As a resident of Bay Ridge, I would like to drive my car into Staten Island, where I attend CSI. The toll is ridiculous for Brooklynites, and I would greatly appreciate a cut in our toll.

The tool is way too high and is not fair that SI people could pay less but BK people have to pay much much more almost 3 times as much

I come from Long Island and teach in Jersey. I take the verrazano 20 times a month and 200 times a year. The increase is ridiculous we just had a two dollar increase about a year or two ago already!!!!!!
