Survey: Drivers choose Ohio Turnpike for its speed

0

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio Turnpike’s online survey shows
most motorists use the 241-mile toll road because it’s the fastest and
most convenient route.
The reason why some motorists don’t use the
turnpike may seem just as obvious — the toll road across northern Ohio
doesn’t go where they are going.
According to the Akron Beacon Journal (http://bit.ly/1adSpkr ), the survey shows tolls
don’t deter most motorists from using the turnpike.
More
than 26,500 people participated in the survey, which collected answers
to 32 questions from late November through mid-December. It was the
turnpike’s first comprehensive travel survey.
When asked why they
use the turnpike, 81 percent of respondents said it’s because the
highway is the fastest route. Fifty-four percent said it’s the most
convenient.
More than one answer could be picked.
