14-15.0081: Toll Facilities Description and Toll Rate Schedule
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The Florida Department of Transportation is proposing changes to the Toll Facilities Description and Toll Rate Schedule to establish a toll for a SunPass-only southbound on-ramp and a SunPass-only northbound off-ramp at the Sunrise Boulevard Interchange in Broward County. Section 338.155(1), Florida Statutes, does not permit the use of the State’s toll facilities without paying a toll.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: The proposed workshop is being held in conjunction with a Project Development and Environment study Public Hearing for the Florida Department of Transportation’s construction of a SunPass-only on-ramp and a SunPass-only off-ramp at the Sunrise Boulevard interchange and Florida’s Turnpike Mainline. These new ramps are a modification of the existing interchange at the Turnpike Mainline and Sunrise Boulevard. The project is located in Broward County on the Southern Coin System at Mile Post 58, approximately four miles north of the I-595/Turnpike Mainline interchange and approximately four miles south of the Commercial Boulevard/Turnpike Mainline interchange. Tolls are proposed to be collected from vehicles entering the Turnpike Mainline southbound and exiting the Turnpike Mainline northbound.
