"But the real question is, why didn't they go ahead and build the four other bridges connecting on the Austin side of the 45/35 interchange as well? ... Could it be they didn't want those bridges to be there, at least for awhile, because they would discourage use of the toll roads?"

Sal,
It was previously reported that the toll on the north section of MoPac would be ~.75 (.25 / mile). In today's paper Ben Wear says it will be $2.00 (.67 / mile).
In the case of MoPac, the toll road part will be only the first three miles or so, with a likely toll of about $2. On August 16 Wear wrote that the MoPac toll road was well under budget, so the increase isn't due to a cost over-run.
MoPac will be the first toll road to open, around December 2006.
