Funding roads (taxes, user fees etc)

[Canard]

On the subject of "pay for what you want" types of service.. what do people think about variable rate tolling of express lanes?

I've seen this in a few places in the US (Minneapolis and Texas come to mind) and it piqued my interest. It was $0.00 use in off peak when there's no congestion but as it gets busier, the price per unit of distance goes up.

Edit: I just relalized this is essentially how I use 407; I never take it, unless the 401 is so clogged that I'm willing to spend the cash to bypass it and have a relaxing drive.
