Today, the Greater Miami Expressway Agency (GMX) met for their final Board meeting of 2023. The Board unanimously approved SOUTH FLORIDA SAVES, a new 6-month frequent user discount program. The program will be in effect from January 1st until June 30th, 2024. Users with 40 transactions or more during a month on GMX expressways become eligible for a 20% SunPass discount. It’s estimated that SOUTH FLORIDA SAVES could benefit up to 200,000 customers that use GMX expressways.
The SOUTH FLORIDA SAVES Program does not require any registration and customers will receive a 20% discount credited on their SunPass account the subsequent month. It’s anticipated that on average a customer may earn a $72 credit. GMX has allocated $9 million towards the discount program in its 2024 fiscal year budget.

“GMX understands the impact inflation is having on many hard-working families in our community. The SOUTH FLORIDA SAVES program provides immediate financial relief for those customers that greatly rely on GMX expressways on a daily basis. It’s our hope that the program will alleviate the economic challenges many are experiencing,” highlighted the Chair of the GMX Board Mariana “Marili” Cancio.
“SOUTH FLORIDA SAVES is both financially feasible and reflects our commitment at GMX to protect the resources of our customers and provide additional assistance to those who utilize our expressways,” stated GMX’s Interim Executive Director Torey Alston.
The GMX Board also voted today to accept the fiscal year 2023 audit of the state legislatively dissolved Miami-Dade Expressway Authority (MDX) as GMX completes the full transition of operations.
