The current Alligator Alley Toll Rates are proposed to be increased. The Toll Rate charged to vehicles traveling on Alligator Alley distinguishes between (i) Electronic Transactions (SunPass) and Cash Transactions, and (ii) the number of axles of each vehicle. The Toll Rate is equal to the number of axles of each vehicle traveling on Alligator Alley minus one, multiplied by the Rounded Base Rate. The Rounded Base Rate for Electronic Transactions (SunPass) is the Base Toll Rate rounded down to the nearest penny. The Rounded Base Rate for Cash Transactions is the Base Toll Rate rounded to the nearest quarter; provided that in the event that the Base Toll Rate is equally between two quarters (rounding is determined at the fourth decimal point position) then it shall be rounded up. The Base Toll Rate is being increased to $3.00 for Electronic Transactions (SunPass) and $3.75 for Cash Transactions, which increases the Toll Rate for all vehicles. The Base Toll Rate is the unrounded Electronic Transactions (SunPass) or the unrounded Cash Toll Rate for a two axle vehicle for the immediately preceding year. Beginning January 1, 2011 and as of each January 1 thereafter, the Base Toll Rate will be the Base Toll Rate for the immediately preceding calendar year multiplied by 1.03 or the ratio of the Consumer Price Index (CPI – All Items), United States Department of Labor for the immediately preceding CPI year ended June 30th to the CPI for the second most recent CPI year ended June 30th, whichever is greater. Section 338.155(1), Florida Statutes, does not permit the use of the State’s toll facilities without paying a toll.
