Express Tolls on 826 Palmetto removed

Well this post may be a little late, but it is with much satisfaction that we report the FDOT decided last year to suspend toll collection on the Palmetto Expressway.

Now they need to remove the plastic poles and open up the full width of the highway.   You can clearly see that all this is doing is creating more traffic and reducing safety.

Below is a copy of the letter former Miami-Dade mayor Carlos Gimenez sent to FDOT about the decision to “roll back” the express lane tolls.
