Outside The Parks: Express Lanes Coming to Interstate 4


The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is bringing new Express Lanes to Central Florida as part of the I-4 Ultimate project. Express Lanes have proven popular throughout the country and right here in Florida. They will require a toll, but it will be up to the Driver to use them or use the regular lanes (which will remain free of charge). Take a look at the following video to find out exactly how these lanes are keeping traffic moving in Florida:



Why is this a news that might interest you? As you may know, Interstate 4 is one of the most important roads in the state, which connects all the major theme parks and attractions in the area, and is therefore used by a lot of Visitors here in Central Florida. For this reason, it is important for you to be up-to-date with this project, as it may affect your future travel plans while visiting the Orlando theme parks an attractions. 

Here you are a few renderings depicting how Interstate 4 will look in the near future:




Managed lanes, or Express Lanes, are becoming increasingly attractive options for managing congestion, adding capacity to limited-access roads and providing choices to drivers. FDOT is partnering with government agencies across the state to find ways to offer Florida drivers new and reliable mobility choices for a connected Express Lanes system in a consistent, predictable and repeatable manner.

  2. Couldn't just have just added new lanes and not charged people tolls on them? Then everyone would benefit :/
