ALBANY, N.Y., Oct. 23, 2017 — Bestpass, a company that provides single-source payment and streamlined toll management services to commercial fleets, and the Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) today announced a partnership to enhance toll management services for commercial fleets and drivers.
“The commercial fleet industry relies on Bestpass and CFX expressways,” said Laura Kelley, executive director of CFX. “So it makes good business sense for us to work with Bestpass to help save their customers money on tolls. CFX plays a vital role in the cost-effective transport of goods throughout Central Florida.”
“While we have provided toll coverage in Florida for a few years, this new partnership helps us make sure that we are providing the best possible service to our commercial customers, no matter where they are driving,” said John Andrews, president and CEO of Bestpass. “Once we go live, we will also be able to offer our customers additional toll discounts, averaging about 23 percent less than cash prices, that are available exclusively through CFX.”
CFX operates and maintains a regional network of expressways in Florida’s Lake, Orange, Osceola and Seminolecounties. The network spans more than 100 miles and includes seven named expressways, 64 interchanges and 301 bridges.
