RULE:

Toll Facilities Description and Toll Rate Schedule

PURPOSE:

The Florida Department of Transportation is proposing changes to the Toll Facilities Description and Toll Rate Schedule to establish tolls for the I-4/Lee Roy Selmon Expressway Interchange (Connector), a SunPass-only facility connecting I-4 and the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway in Tampa. Section 338.155(1), Florida Statutes, does not permit the use of the State’s toll facilities without paying a toll.

SUBJECT:

The Department is proposing to toll the Connector, a limited-access interchange that extends from the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway north along the west side of 31st Street to I-4 in Tampa. This is an elevated roadway that includes a series of separate ramps intended to improve the regional movement of traffic throughout the Tampa Bay area and provide dedicated truck lanes for direct access to the Port of Tampa. It is consistent with proposed improvements to I-4, the Lee Roy Selmon Reversible Lanes Project, and the Causeway Boulevard Port Access Improvement Project. Tolls are proposed to be collected from vehicles using the SunPass and TOLL-BY-Plate electronic toll collection programs by an overhead gantry located on the project south of 7th Avenue.
