"The poll by the San Diego Association of Governments and California Transportation Department found that 59.4 percent of border crossers would pay $3 at a proposed port of entry in San Diego's Otay Mesa district. Another 14.2 percent would pay occasionally, while 26.5 percent would avoid the toll. The findings are part of a broader survey to measure the impact of lines at San Ysidro, the nation's busiest border crossing, and two other ports of entry in San Diego County."
