Pay to drive on I-70? That decision might soon be in the hands of Missouri voters.
Victor Roberto has more from the state Capitol.
The Senate Transportation Committee heard a bill to make it possible to turn I-70 into a toll road.
The bill's sponsor, Senator Matt Bartle, says even the money from Amendment 3 is not enough to fix I-70.
Bartle says the toll would be about 20 dollars for a round trip from St. Louis to Kansas City.
