SB 308

Senator Frank Artiles Files Legislation to Collapse Expressway Authorities in Florida

Posted on January 13, 2017

Florida Senator Frank Artiles (R-Miami) today announced the filing of Senate Bill 308, relating to Expressway Authorities, for the 2017 Legislative Session, in an effort to collapse expressway authorities into the Florida Department of Transportation.
“Senate Bill 308 removes another layer of government by eliminating the Miami-Dade Expressway Authority (MDX), saves money and keeps 95 percent of toll revenues in the county that generates it,” said Senator Artiles. “The exorbitant tolls charged by the MDX are simply too high for the working class to afford; and, collapsing the MDX will cut down on bureaucratic government, saving money for all Floridians who travel on the expressway.”
SB 308 would collapse all expressway authorities in the State of Florida, including the MDX, would end the culture of excessive tolls and ensure the safety of Florida roads.
