The meeting will likely involve considerable discussion and debate surrounding the plan's details and potential impact on drivers and commuters.
The implementation of this toll could have major effects on traffic flow, commute times, and the city's overall transportation landscape. Further details are expected to emerge following Monday's board meeting.
