Florida Motorists' Savings From Toll Relief Program Was About $35 Million In February

WFLA reports, “Florida commuters saved millions of dollars in tolls state-wide since January, according to a monthly report from the Florida Department of Transportation. [Yesterday], state officials announced through the month of February alone, Florida’s commuters saved nearly $35 million in tolls. That total brought the total savings for the first two months of the program to more than $70 million. FDOT said the savings were passed directly on to nearly 1.1 million commuters and their families. The year-long toll relief program automatically gives customers with at least 35 monthly toll transactions a 50% credit to their account.” (TRN inserted links.)
