Future
There are currently plans for tolled SunPass express lanes on the middle of the expressway to relieve the traffic. The Express Lanes will significantly improve the capacity and operations of the I-595 corridor by providing 3 additional at-grade lanes in the median of the corridor. The lanes will reverse direction in peak travel times (eastbound in the a.m. / westbound in the p.m.). To maximize the operational efficiency, the lanes will be tolled at varying rates throughout the day to optimize traffic flow, and access to and from the lanes will only be allowed west of 136th Avenue, east of State Road 7, and through a direct connection to the median of Florida’s Turnpike, removing long distance commuter traffic from the general purpose lanes. FDOT will retain control of the toll revenue and toll rates.

“‘Tis the world-old way of the rain
When it comes to a mountain farm
To exact for a present gain
A little of future harm.”
