Orange County’s toll road agencies Wednesday hired the former top official for the Bay Area Rapid Transit District to oversee the county’s 67-mile toll road system.
Thomas E. Margro, 62, will replace William Woollett Jr., who was interim CEO for three years. He will earn $225,000 a year as the corridor agencies’ CEO, a spokeswoman said.
Margro’s chief priority will be to complete a controversial extension of the 241 tollway through San Onofre State Beach and connect to Interstate 5, said Jim Thor, chairman of the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency.
