BERLIN, N.H. -- An anticipated showdown over New Hampshire's pending toll hikes didn't happen, so tolls will go up as planned on Monday.
Executive Councilor Raymond Wieczorek had said he wanted the council to reconsider the hikes it approved two weeks ago, but he didn't bring it up Wednesday because he didn't have enough support.
So, on Monday, tolls will rise to $1 on Interstate 93 in Hooksett and the Everett Turnpike in Bedford and to $1.50 on Interstate 95 in Hampton. They will increase to 75 cents on the Spaulding Turnpike in Dover and Rochester and Interstate 95 ramps in Hampton.

How could he not possibly have enough support, the public outcry should have been enough.
