The project encompasses the construction of two new three-lane toll plazas to serve The Dolphin Mall at the Beacon Tradeport Center at NW 12th Street and the Homestead Extension of Florida’s Turnpike (SR 821). One plaza, designated a Midsize Toll Plaza, consists of three lanes with a tollbooth, an Administration Building, and a Generator/Storage Building. The Administration Building includes the following rooms: Counting Room, Vault Room, Supervisor’s Office, Manager’s Office, Supplies Room, Toilet Facilities, Break Room and Recorder Room. The Generator/Storage Building includes a stand-by power generator system with aboveground diesel fuel tank.
The other plaza, designated a Small Ramp Toll Plaza, consists of three lanes with a tollbooth and a Ramp Building. The Ramp Building includes a Recorder Room, an Office, and a Break Room. This facility also includes a packaged standby power system with an underground LPG storage tank.
The toll lanes on each plaza are constructed with 12 inch thick Portland Cement Concrete Paving and are covered by a 5,326 square foot concrete canopy. Both sites include asphalt surfaced Parking Lots for Toll Personnel, Site Drainage, Water & Sewer services, Electrical and Security Systems. |
