As DRPA Commissioners representing the State of New Jersey we take our responsibility very seriously. During the DRPA Board Meeting on September 15, 2010, there was a passionate and engaged discussion about allowing DRPA employees to commute to and from work without paying tolls. Like our Pennsylvania colleagues we were moved by the statements of DRPA staff members about the impact of this change on DRPA employees. In retrospect we recognize that we did not sufficiently consider the comments of Governor Christie and Vice Chairman Nash. In particular we did not sufficiently consider the interests of our toll payers and PATCO riders.
