The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) announced that toll operations will resume on several Florida roadways after tolls were suspended for areas impacted by Hurricane Ian.

According to FDOT, normal toll operations will resume on Alligator Alley, Sunshine Skyway Bridge and Pinellas Bayway starting at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, October 24th.

Alligator Alley is a stretch of I-75 that spans 80 miles, cutting through the Everglades between Naples and Fort Lauderdale.

The Bob Graham Sunshine Skyway Bridge, often referred to as the Sunshine Skyway Bridge or the Sunshine Skyway, is a pair of bridges that spans Lower Tampa Bay to connect St. Petersburg to Terra Ceia.

The Pinellas Bayway is a series of bridges on two state roads in Pinellas County.

Several roadways throughout Florida had tolls suspended as Hurricane Ian made landfall on September 28th.

Hurricane Ian, the 4th strongest to impact the state, brought devastating winds of 150 mph and water damage to many areas along Florida's southwest and central coast.
