The Florida Department of Transportation will announce its new testing facility, Suntrax, this morning.

Turnpike officials would not comment on the details prior to the announcement.

However in an interview with The Lakeland Ledger in March, turnpike district spokeswoman Christa Deason said the center will initially be used to test toll technology.

The project is expected to break ground next year.
