People don't want to pay tolls but then they whinge about having to pay taxes.

If there were tolls on the road you have the choice of using it or not and paying or not. Without tolls and with taxes funding roads you have no choice. It comes out of general revenue. I don't know that tolls on roads is the problem.

The gridlock will occur because of increases in population and more cars on the road. The idea is to create a road system that alleviates gridlock. Does this alleviate gridlock or not?

Yes, and lane closures to push people to /have/ to pay tolls or suffer
in gridlock if one must travel at any kind of peak period.
