Mixed Reaction Over I77 Toll Lanes

After years of construction, delays and lawsuits the I-77 toll lanes are now open from Charlotte to the Lake Norman area.

But some drivers are vowing not to use them. Drivers can take the lanes from Hambright Road in Huntersville to exit 36 in Mooresville. Members of the group widen I-77 have spoken out for years saying the state signed a bad contact with Spanish-firm Cintra.

It prevents additional free lanes from being built for 50 years. We tested the lanes to see how much time you save during rush hour and found about a nine minute difference.
