The Osceola County Board of County Commissioners voted to adopt a new toll policy stating that all tolls shall be automatically adjusted to an amount of either the annual increase to the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers in the South [CPI-U], or 1.5 percent for all electronic and Pay By Plate toll rates. The toll adjustment will occur on January 1, 2021 – the first toll rate adjustment on Osceola Parkway since 2014.
Based on the above criteria, customers will see subsequent annual toll adjustments on October 1.
Osceola Parkway was built as a “limited access” road, and tolls are levied to pay for costs associated with building and maintaining the road. There are numerous stop lights along Osceola Parkway (for example, at Seralago, I-4, State Road 417, International Drive, Victory Way and most recently at Storey Lake) that are designed to provide motorists safe access and egress to Osceola Parkway. The lights exist because Osceola Parkway was envisioned and built as a "limited access” roadway with at-grade street connections -- as opposed to a "controlled access” roadway (such as I-4 and SR 417) with exclusive on-off ramps.
Motorists who use E-PASS or similar transponders will continue to enjoy significant savings over cash and Pay By Plate customers. E-PASS, SunPass, NC QuickPass, PeachPass, and LeeWay are all accepted on the Osceola Parkway.
As a reminder, customers who choose E-PASS also receive additional volume toll discounts on Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) expressways in Central Florida, including the Osceola Parkway. E-PASS is a product of CFX, which serves the five-county Central Florida region including Osceola County. E-PASS offers a free toll sticker*, or the new Uni transponder for multistate travel in up to 18 states.
To get an E-PASS:
*E-PASS toll sticker is $4.95 when purchased from Amazon.com
