UPDATE: CONTINUE TO MONITOR YOUR E-PASS ACCOUNT
Please check your E-PASS account frequently in the weeks ahead. Toll transactions on CFX/E-PASS roads are processing normally. If you drive on Florida’s Turnpike and other SunPass roads, most of these toll transactions since June 1, 2018 have been delayed. E-PASS will contact you in the near future to provide you with options with regard to SunPass transactions. Not sure if you've traveled on an FDOT toll road? View a Central Florida CFX and FDOT toll road map .
If you have any questions, please see our FAQs .

If you used SunPass toll roads for business travel, we have prepared a letter to print and submit with your expense report explaining additional charges may still be pending.

WEKIVA PARKWAY
CUTTING COMMUTE TIMES
Selected as one of Orlando Business Journal's 2018 Structures Awards honorees, CFX’s Wekiva Parkway sections have been a game-changer for many in Central Florida.

From Orlando to Mount Dora, and from Sanford to the attractions, drivers praise the parkway for its ease and convenience.

Drivers report shaving 10-15 minutes from their commutes since CFX opened the five miles connecting to State Road 46 in Lake County last spring.  
Crews are making progress landscaping the new parkway section connecting to SR 46 near Round Lake Road. Work should be done in a couple of months. CFX landscaping incorporates a variety of tough, drought-tolerant, pest-resistant native plants and trees.
