Multi-use Corridors of Regional Economic Significance.The Legislature enacted Ch. 2019-43, Laws of Florida, which created this program within the department. The purpose of the program is to revitalize rural communities, encourage job creation, and provide regional connectivity by building three new toll roads: the Southwest-Central Florida Connector (Collier County to Polk County), the Suncoast Connector (Citrus County to Jefferson County), and the Northern Turnpike Connector (northern terminus of the Florida Turnpike northwest to the Suncoast Parkway). Construction is planned from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2030.
In February and March 2020, FDOT released initial policies and graphics for all three M-CORES corridors that include policies to enhance and protect existing A roads, infrastructure, and environmental assets such as water flow and wildlife corridors. The maps show areas FDOT has committed to, as a starting point, that will not be impacted or that new corridors will not go through. A related report will be due to the Governor and Legislature in the fall of 2020.
