For much of the past year, state transportation officials heard strong opposition to plans for three major new toll roads in Florida. But the controversial projects aren’t dead.

The funding would go toward providing more modernized vehicles and expanding the streetcar service to areas including USF and Tampa International Airport.

Florida's agriculture commissioner remains opposed to the projects due to environmental concerns, and says they "will put an unnecessary strain on the state's ability to fund urgent priorities" during the pandemic.

As of July 2020, less than 1% of Floridians were driving hybrid or electric cars. That’s according to an in-house consultant for the state’s transportation agency.

The three toll roads would be the biggest road-building project by the state since the construction of Florida's Turnpike.

He said halting the projects would hinder economic growth and technological advances in rural communities.
