The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission wants to deal.
In an attempt to finish the remaining 50 miles of the Mon-Fayette Expressway and Southern Beltway, officials are offering control of sections of the toll road already completed and under construction. In exchange, the joint venture or private investor would have to pony up $5.2 billion to complete that last stretch of the Mon-Fayette and Southern Beltway.
The Turnpike Commission will hold a special hearing on Sept. 17 for parties interested in a public-private partnership.
