About MDX

  • MDX was enabled by the Florida Legislature and created by
  • rdinance of the Miami-Dade County Commission in 1994 as a

local agency of the state to assure that tolls collected on the MDX system would stay in Miami-Dade County to be invested locally

  • MDX is governed by 13 Board of Directors
  • 7 are appointed by the Miami-Dade County Commission
  • 5 are appointed by the Governor
  • District 6 FDOT Secretary is the 13th member of the Board

About MDX

  • Maintains, operates and improves the following expressways:
  • SR 112/Airport Expressway, SR 836/Dolphin Expressway, SR 874/Don

Shula Expressway, SR 878/Snapper Creek Expressway, and SR 924/Gratigny Parkway

  • 100% of all tolls collected in the MDX system remain and are

invested in Miami-Dade County

  • No federal funds, no State Transportation Trust Fund, no gas tax, no

impact fees, no property or county transit tax

  • MDX borrows money by selling bonds and uses toll revenue as

collateral, similar to a 30 year mortgage loan

  • 95% of revenues comes from tolls, 5% from investment
  • 95% goes to project funding and O&M, 5% to Administration

Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study

Why it’s done

  • Evaluate project feasibility and potential environmental impacts

(natural, physical, socio-cultural)

  • Comply with federal and state environmental laws
  • Required to secure federal regulatory approval

What it involves

  • Evaluating different corridors
  • Conducting preliminary engineering
  • Evaluating options to avoid, minimize, or mitigate potential environmental

impacts

  • Coordinating with federal, state and local agencies
  • Engaging the public in project development
