The echelon interchange that was intended to alleviate traffic backups near Disney Springs on SR-535 has been scrapped
The Florida Department of Transportation canceled a project intended to alleviate traffic backups for those attempting to travel to Disney Springs.
Spectrum News 13 reports the planned echelon interchange project, which would have provided a fly-over ramp for those looking to travel from northbound SR-535 onto Hotel Boulevard, has been canceled. The ramp was intended to alleviate traffic congestion at this busy Disney Springs area intersection.

The land for the project has been re-purposed to provide a loop ramp to connect SR-535 to I-4 westbound. While this will eliminate the need to cross traffic to get from 535 to Westbound I-4, it will likely not impact the congestion near Hotel Boulevard.

This project will provide additional improvements to the traffic flow of I-4 in the area, such as a lengthened I-4 west exit ramp and a new westbound express lane.
