What's new with the project: |
On March 3, 2009, FDOT signed a public-private partnership (P3)
agreement with I-595 Express, LLC, a
consortium created by ACS Infrastructure
Development, who will serve as the
Concessionaire to design, build, finance,
operate and maintain (D/B/F/O/M) the I-595
Corridor Improvements project through the 35-year agreement
term.
Current Activities
Design, permitting and field survey
activities have commenced. Construction
plans for the New River Greenway and select
sound barriers are under final development,
and construction activities for the Greenway
(in the vicinity of the 136th Avenue) were
initiated on June 15.
Conceptual permits are being modified as
necessary and separated into individual
construction permits to match the
construction sequencing of the project.
Topographic surveys and geotechnical
investigations are being completed as needed
for the project design.
Upcoming Activities
Construction activities for the
Greenway (east of 136th Avenue) and select sound barriers are
scheduled for Summer 2009. Major
construction activities involving roadway
and bridge construction are anticipated to
commence in Fall 2009 and are scheduled
for completion in Spring 2014. Refer to the
project schedule for more information.

The limits of the project extend from the I-75/Sawgrass Expressway interchange to the I-595/I-95 interchange in central Broward County, Florida, for a total project length of approximately 10.5 miles. The project consists of the reconstruction, addition of auxiliary lanes and resurfacing of the I-595 mainline (including associated improvements to frontage roads and ramps), and a new reversible express lanes system in the I-595 median. Highlights of the major improvement components include:
Tolled reversible ground level express lanes to be known as 595Express, serving express traffic to/from I-75/Sawgrass Expressway from/to east of SR 7, with a direct connection to the median of Florida’s Turnpike.
Geometric improvements to the I-595 / Florida’s Turnpike Interchange.
Widening / reconstruction of the Florida’s Turnpike mainline from Griffin Road to Peters Road (2.7 miles) to accommodate the express lanes direct connection.
Addition of auxiliary lanes on the eastbound and westbound I-595 and SR 84 roadways.
Continuous connection of the SR 84 frontage road between Davie Road and SR 7.
Grade separated (braided) entrance and exit ramps.
