FLORIDA: Regional Congestion Pricing Study in Orlando
MetroPlan Orlando, the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Orlando Urbanized Area is conducting a study to explore value pricing options that may be suitable to Central Florida. The study analyzes which strategies can best relieve congestion in the area and can serve as another source of funding for transportation improvements.
A Steering Committee of regional transportation experts, municipal officials and citizens is working alongside value pricing experts to guide the study process. An in-depth analysis and study was conducted to determine the feasibility of various options. Initially, more than 30 value pricing options were identified. The steering committee used a preliminary screening process to narrow the number of options to 13, and a second-round evaluation further reduced the options to five.
