The hourly service to Orlando stops wouldn't be meant for MCO traffic, although you could use it for that. We should be thinking of it as a ride from South Florida or Tampa Bay to I-Drive or to Disney.
That’s why it’s really important that the path used can service both SunRail and Brightline, with a dual use agreement. I’d also argue that the I-Drive line would be smarter for that reason, with SunRail/Gvt paying the delta. We should also be exploring a spur to Lake Nona.

@Jerry95 I actually had clarification on the yellow/green toll thing from a close friend because I asked about the inconsistency too. The way its supposed to work is all toll shields for the road you're already paying tolls on should have the green designation. However if you're coming off of another roadway especially a non-tolled one to a toll road, the shield needs to be yellow. Which is why you see the ones on SR 408 as green when you're on 408, but the ones on the surface streets adjacent to 408 are yellow. That logic therefore makes the SR 528 on I-4 incorrect as does the SR 408 sign I posted above, but the 429/453 sign in your photo correct.
You could make the argument that SR 528 is a "free" road until US 17/92/441? *Shrugs*
Road sign consistency is a pet peeve of mine though.....

Yeah it’s built to have Security, Baggage Claim, and Ticketing all expanded along the spine.
Phase 1X as they call it is now fully funded and takes us back to pre-Covid expansion. The bridge to the Train Terminal will be completed, those extra 4-5 gates to the South and I think (not positive) some expansion to the Terminal as mentioned above.
Phase 2 design is now funded to add additional gates to the North and look at a “behind security” APM or moving sidewalks.
A moderate budget was added to the north terminal to replace the remaining brown signs, replace the four old APMs remaining, and $60 for minor building renovations.
So doesn’t seem like any major A or B changes in the next 5 years.
