Gotta hand it to the French, they don't arse around with committees, they just go out and build it.

well it isnt the french goverment who pays for the bridge so that helps. Which is possibly a nice system aswell, let a company build a road give them the right to collect receipt from toll, so they end up making a profit if the road is useful.
So roads that arent really needed to allow people to move through the country and/or cost alot, do get build if its expected to get used alot. Its a nice system.

Sounds a good system, just might be a moral objection to paying to use the roads, freedom of movement and all that, is an argument on thin ice I'll admit though

There is a bridge not far from my house, crossing the canal, that carries a 12p toll either way. Everyone uses it, nobody complains, so why anybody thinks people would complain if we had to pay to use the motorways, is beyond me. Personally, I think payage is a great idea. Much better to reduce the road tax accordingly, and make people pay at the point of use. It gives people a better idea of what they are paying for.

hmmmmm?

MS Flight Simulator 2004, in case you were wondering. Be one hell of a large patch to fix that bridge.

 

[cHodAX]

British designed ofc

 

[Morchaoron]

If these french bridges are as stable as these french servers, then things could get really nasty
