Comments:

A Regional Concept for Transportation Operations (RCTO) defines the operating guidelines and goals for Express Lanes regionally and how to achieve mutually agreed upon objectives. An RCTO is a ""living"" document that contains operational, maintenance and technical guidance, including best practices, to inform the development of specific Express Lanes projects. As of August 2017, the Southeast Florida RCTO is in draft, and is anticipated to be finalized in late summer or early fall 2017. The RCTO will likely be available on the http://floridaexpresslanes.com website once finalized.
