"Tolls begin to rise in the heist of what is becoming the beginning
of terrible friendship. Apart from all the construction sites, as well
as time consuming detours, the state of Florida has decided to include
and add on even more tolls being just a few distance within each other.
This idea has even fluctuated to influence Georgia and North Carolina. Even Canada might join in on all the fun! This is going to get out of hand, especially to all of those drivers that work near the Miami Beach area. Be prepared to save up to $200 or more a month when taking these incoming tolls in Miami.
Forget saving up for the expensive for what already is Miami. All residents working near that area will be working partly just for tolls!

Here is what two South Florida member had to comment regarding toll rates:
David Sutta comments:
"How
do you keep cars moving? Use money as a motivator. The system counts
how many cars are using the express lanes at any given moment. If there
are too many cars the toll climbs up, hopefully discouraging drivers
from entering the lanes. If the lanes are empty, the price goes down.
The program calculates how much the toll should go up or down and for
how long. While the system could do the entire change itself, an
engineer still must click a button to approve the change just in case
something whacky happens. Once the change is approved, within seconds
the tolls go up. The engineer looks over to a row of screens to make
sure everything went smoothly. The cameras trained on all the 95
Express signs show the change in tolls has taken place."
As of November 2014, all cash payers for tolls on 836 and SR-112 were completely eliminated. More tolls are being added as we speak and definitely not for the better. We understand the construction is need for better roads and pavements however these tolls are not going to be temporarily.
Not to add these tolls will also be added in a few short distances away from each other. The highest toll rate is currently the one on 95, when it reaches $10.50. Sources mention, that this will discourage many drivers to take these roads but in the busy city of Miami - there is no time to loose!
This spring it is expected to extend the lanes all the way to Fort Lauderdale so expect even more coming from these tolls.
