About

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has advanced this project as a part of the Moving Florida Forward Infrastructure Initiative, a statewide effort to deliver congestion relief faster and more efficiently to Florida’s residents and visitors.

The purpose of this project is to increase capacity, improve traffic operations, and enhance safety on I-75 from Golden Gate Parkway to Alico Road within Collier and Lee Counties. Proposed improvements include:

  • Resurfacing I-75 from Golden Gate Parkway to Alico Road 
  • Adding express lanes in both directions:
    • Two express lanes from Golden Gate Parkway to Corkscrew Road
    • One express lane through the Corkscrew Road interchange
  • New auxiliary lanes in both directions between Golden Gate Parkway and Alico Road
  • Adding accelerated congestion relief lanes in both directions between Immokalee Road and Bonita Beach Road
  • New diverging diamond interchange (DDI) at Immokalee Road
  • Provides direct access to the express lanes at Vanderbilt Beach Road
  • New noise walls in qualifying locations
  • Ramp modifications at key interchanges

Benefits of this project include improved safety, reduced congestion, more reliable travel times, and long-term funding for transportation improvements.
