Personal Impact Letter

Dear _________________________________,

I am not in favor of a toll on the Sakonnet River Bridge or the Governor’s proposal to transfer control of the Sakonnet River Bridge to the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority.  This bridge is a commuter bridge and connects Tiverton and Little Compton to the rest of Rhode Island.  Having a toll on this bridge would impact the East Bay communities both economically and environmentally. Not only would it severely hurt business, but it would put a huge financial burden on residents, many of whom are already struggling.  It is not too late! I am asking you to please speak out against this now!

I travel over the Sakonnet Bridge __________________________________________________________

(ex. several times a day, once a week, 2x a month, every weekend, etc.)

I come from ___________________________________________________________________________

(ex. Tiverton, Fall River, Bristol, Portsmouth, Middletown, Little Compton, Newport, etc.)

I go to _______________________________________________________________________________

(ex. Tiverton, Fall River, Bristol, Portsmouth, Middletown, Little Compton, Newport, etc.)

I go over the bridge to ___________________________________________________________________

(ex. go to work, go to the doctors, visit my children, go to dinner, etc.)

This toll will affect me and my family because ________________________________________________
