95 EXPRESS MEDIA ALERT |
||||
Miami, FL – The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District Six, in coordination with the Florida Turnpike Enterprise (FTE), will close the northbound express lanes and one inside local travel lane on I-95 between SR 836 / Dolphin Expressway and the Golden Glades from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m., Tuesday, October 14 and Wednesday, October 15 to conduct “end-to-end” testing. The NW 39th Street on ramp and the SR 112 eastbound flyover ramp to northbound I-95 will also be closed. This testing period is an important step in preparing the new facility for the implementation of electronic tolling. During these closures, authorized vehicles will drive in the express lanes to “test” the recently installed tolling equipment and make sure that it is communicating with the District Six Traffic Management Center (TMC) and the FTE. Overhead tolling signs will display toll rates as part of this test, but actual tolling will not begin at this time. Motorists will be advised in advance when electronic tolling will begin on this new facility. |
