Now, as you may know, there is a plan for building a new bridge for I-75 traffic next to the current BrentSpence Bridge. As part of this plan, eight miles of the highway would be widened, and the current bridge

would be improved for safety purposes and then remain for I-71 travel, costing $2.7 billion which could be paid for through a combination of federal and local revenues, including tolls.

Generally speaking, would you support or oppose this plan?
