Summary


The Florida Department of Transportation, Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise is proposing to construct a SunPass-Only interchange in the area near Pace Road and the Polk Parkway in Polk County. The project is located in Polk County. Tolls are proposed to be collected from vehicles accessing to and from the northbound direction. This new interchange is located at Milepost 23 and is approximately two miles north of the Eastern Toll Plaza and one mile south of the interchange at Interstate 4. A public hearing is being held in conjunction with a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) public hearing for an interchange project, Financial Project Identification 416537-2. The toll rate public hearing is being held to allow the public an opportunity to comment on the proposed toll rate schedule for the Florida Department of Transportation’s construction of a SunPass-Only interchange at Pace Road located on the Polk Parkway. A rule development workshop was not requested for this project.
