How would access in and out of the toll lanes be provided?
There are several alternatives based on timing and sequencing between FDOT’s project and the addition of tolls. The earliest possible implementation of ETL’s would consist of making the lanes being built by FDOT toll lanes. In this case, heavy striping would delineate the separation between the toll lane and the general use lane. Although the access in this case would not be physically restricted, the approved access points would be clearly delineated and signed. Other alternatives with physical separation between the tolls lanes and the general purpose lanes would provide several access points along the 35-mile section of I-75. In this case, access and egress to the ETLs would be provided via slip ramps located between interchanges along selected segments of the ETLs. Entrances will be located beyond the on-ramps at interchanges, and exits will be located in advance of off-ramps at interchanges.
