    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.

BILLS: SB 1552 REFERENCE ACTION ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR or BUDGET/POLICY CHIEF 1) Transportation & Ports Subcommittee 12 Y, 0 N, As Willson Vickers CS 2) Transportation & Economic Development Appropriations Subcommittee 3) Economic Affairs Committee SUMMARY ANALYSIS Toll facilities are operated by a variety of agencies located throughout the state of Florida. Many toll facilities no longer offer the option for payment in cash. A number of national and local companies offer rental cars in Florida. The companies vary in their policies regarding the use of toll facilities. In sum, the bill: Requires toll facilities to ensure the presence of signage notifying drivers if cash payment is not an option. Requires rental car companies which impose an additional fee to renters who incur a toll from an electronic toll collection system: o to include the applicable terms and conditions in the rental car agreement, and o to post the applicable terms and conditions in a conspicuous location on the business premises or in the electronic rental disclosure provided to the renter. The bill does not appear to have a significant fiscal impact on state or local government. The bill has an effective date of July 1, 2016. This document does not reflect the intent or official position of the bill sponsor or House of Representatives. STORAGE NAME: h1119a.TPS DATE: 2/3/2016 FULL ANALYSIS I. SUBSTANTIVE ANALYSIS A.

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.
