Exactly where were the original toll booths? --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 16:43, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I found it. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 16:46, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Scott doesn't go into it on his excellent RTTF website, but the Belvidere Toll Plaza (northernmost) was located at the bottom of a long southbound grade, and was the scene of many collisions, especially involving trucks. I believe fatalities included toll attendants. Petersburg had a similar but lesser probelm northbound. Vaoverland 22:20, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

four miles of Interstate 64[edit]

It was a short concurrency, but it was tolled -- four miles of Interstate 64 in northern Richmond. That was almost as long as the part of Interstate 85 that was part of the tollway. One had to pay a toll to enter the short segment of I-64 concurrent with the tollway.Pbrower2a (talk) 15:31, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Component Highways[edit]

Is it worth mentioning that the I-85 portion of the Richmond–Petersburg Turnpike also carries U.S. Route 460? NintendoTTTEfan2005 (talk) 22:25, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
