HARTFORD, CT — House Speaker Joe Aresimowicz said they are close to a deal on a bill that would allow electronic tolls to be installed on four highways in Connecticut.

The bill they will vote on will include information about how much residents will be charged per mile, both peak and off-peak and what type of discount residents will receive.

However, they’re not finished negotiating the bill so they can’t give any more details.

They also have been unable to do a vote count because they don’t have the language drafted.
