    Current Toll Road Activity in the U.S. A Survey and Analysis Prepared for Office of Transportation Policy Studies By Benjamin Perez Steve Lockwood January 2009 Final Report Current Toll Road Activity in the U.S. A Survey and Analysis “Tolling is shaping up as one of the biggest philosophical changes in transportation policy since the toll- free Interstate highway system was created under President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956.” New York Times 4/28/2005 1.0 Introduction The expanded use of tolling was promoted in the last two rounds of federal highway program reauthorization and today tolling is the subject of increasing interest as a potentially important funding source for transportation improvements and as a mechanism for managing congestion in metropolitan areas. Both the National Surface Transportation and Revenue Study Commission and the National Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing Commission recognized the importance of toll revenues and related institutional arrangments. At a time when the motor fuel tax—the primary Federal resource dedicated to the nation’s transportation needs—is becoming increasingly constrained, it is essential to understand more fully the roll played by alternative funding sources at the state and local level. Since ISTEA of 1991, there has been considerable learning regarding toll project development—including new tolling and pricing technology, new types of projects (such as HOT lanes), new forms of public-private partnership and new state and local processes to better organize toll project development. The potential role of toll roads is of special importance as the future of the federal aid program is under consideration – including the systems, the program structure and the funding.

  • Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy
    TOLL FACILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Bridges - Roads - Tunnels - Ferries August 2009 Publication No: FHWA-PL-09-00021 Internet: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage.htm Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy History The early settlers who came to America found a land of dense wilderness, interlaced with creeks, rivers, and streams. Within this wilderness was an extensive network of trails, many of which were created by the migration of the buffalo and used by the Native American Indians as hunting and trading routes. These primitive trails were at first crooked and narrow. Over time, the trails were widened, straightened and improved by settlers for use by horse and wagons. These became some of the first roads in the new land. After the American Revolution, the National Government began to realize the importance of westward expansion and trade in the development of the new Nation. As a result, an era of road building began. This period was marked by the development of turnpike companies, our earliest toll roads in the United States. In 1792, the first turnpike was chartered and became known as the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike in Pennsylvania. It was the first road in America covered with a layer of crushed stone. The boom in turnpike construction began, resulting in the incorporation of more than 50 turnpike companies in Connecticut, 67 in New York, and others in Massachusetts and around the country. A notable turnpike, the Boston-Newburyport Turnpike, was 32 miles long and cost approximately $12,500 per mile to construct. As the Nation grew, so did the need for improved roads.

  • STATE—Concrete Bridges in Florida a History
    STATE Concrete Bridges in Florida A History of Innovation by Lex Collins, Florida Department of Transportation lorida has long been famous for its sunshine Fand beautiful beaches. So it is only natural that most of the state’s population is located along the coastline. Florida is the fourth most populous state in the United States, yet it ranks only 22nd in land area. The Sunshine State is also the top travel destination in the world. Because of all it offers, the state’s population is growing at a significant rate. All this means that Small arch bridge in Mexico Beach large numbers of bridges continue to be required is fitting for the for so many people living in a relatively small site. Photo: PB. area. However, the same warm weather and salt water that bring people to Florida also combine to create a severely corrosive environment for its infrastructure. Thus, concrete has been and remains a natural choice for the state’s bridge designers. Florida has been using concrete for bridge construction for over 90 years. We have a reinforced concrete bridge built in 1915 and a series of precast, prestressed concrete I-beam bridges built in the mid-1950s, all of which are still in service. Because all bridges tend to be a focal point for the landscapes in which they are placed, the state’s citizens demand and deserve attractive structures that enhance their surroundings, instead of dividing and detracting from them. At the same time, public budgets are always tight and owners require bridges that are both affordable and durable.

FORT MYERS: FROM RAFTS TO BRIDGES IN FORTY YEARS by Nell Colcord Weidenbach The Caloosahatchee, a gem among rivers, is a familiar sight to motorists approaching South Florida via the Gulf coast. Since Florida was first burped up from the briny deep in some vague prehistoric era, the wide blue waters of the “River Beautiful” have been drifted upon, poled across, swum in, fought for, used and misused. The pirate “Black Caesar” knew the river well. Ponce de Leon explored it greedily. Seminoles and soldiers played cat and mouse in its coves for many years. For centuries, anybody who wanted to cross the river in the vicinity of today’s Fort Myers was forced to swim or float, like the ’gators and the manatees, in its shallow waters.

  • Review Expressway Authority Lease
    The Florida Senate Issue Brief 2011-227 October 2010 Committee on Transportation TOLL FACILITY LEASE-PURCHASE AGREEMENTS Statement of the Issue The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT or department) has, over the years, entered into lease-purchase agreements with legislatively-approved expressway and bridge authorities throughout the state. Under lease- purchase agreements, FDOT may provide financial support to pay the operations and maintenance costs for an authority‟s toll facilities, thereby enabling the gross toll revenues collected by the authority to be primarily used to pay its facilities‟ bond debt. Reimbursement to FDOT is typically not required until after the authority has met its debt service requirements. Upon completion of the lease-purchase agreement, ownership of the facility may be transferred back to the State and FDOT retains all operations and maintenance responsibility. Currently, Florida expressway and bridge authorities owe more than $379 million to FDOT under the terms of lease-purchase agreements. Discussion Toll facilities have been used throughout Florida as a means of financing road and bridge construction for many years. Very early in the state‟s history, most toll roads and bridges were constructed by private individuals or firms. Later, state governmental units began constructing toll facilities. In more recent years, toll facilities have been financed and constructed by specially created units of government operating primarily under local government control. These units, usually characterized as expressway or bridge authorities, arrange for construction of the facilities, including the required debt financing. In addition to FDOT which has a long history of planning, acquiring, constructing, operating, and maintaining toll facilities, there are numerous other authorities currently operating toll facilities and collecting and reinvesting toll revenues.
