ACCELERATED START
U.S. 27 to east of World Drive
Moving I-4 Forward Program Drives Innovation and Congestion Relief
To provide motorists with immediate congestion relief, FDOT is advancing the construction of two new congestion relief lanes along Interstate 4 (I-4) from east of U.S. 27 to World Drive. Construction is underway, and the congestion relief lanes will open by the end of 2025. The new lanes will be located on the inside of the existing I-4 mainline to provide motorists with congestion relief.
After those lanes are open, additional work in the Accelerated Start phase will add the pavement to expand I-4 to the full width to accommodate up to 12 total lanes at the ChampionsGate Boulevard (C.R. 532) and World Drive interchanges. These additional lanes will consist of up to eight general use lanes and four express lanes (for future use). By expanding these sections earlier in the project timeline, it better allows FDOT to prepare for the simultaneous construction of the future adjoining I-4 projects.
The Moving I-4 Forward Program will consist of five main projects plus an initial phase called the Accelerated Start that includes two additional components to jump-start future construction.
