The program will give Floridians with 35 or more toll transactions per month a 50% credit to their account. The legislation, originally proposed by Governor DeSantis in September of this year, was successfully passed during the recent Legislative Special Session.

The Toll Relief Program begins on January 1, 2023, and runs through December 31, 2023.

Under the Toll Relief Program, drivers who use toll transponders, such as SunPass or other Florida-based transponders, and have 35 or more qualifying toll transactions per month will receive a 50 percent credit to their account.

Officials expect the program to benefit approximately 1.2 million drivers and will save the average commuter nearly $400 in the 2023 calendar year.
