Florida is growing quickly and is expected to grow by approximately 2.8 million net new residents by the year 2030. This brings both challenges and opportunities to connect Florida’s communities to one another, and to global markets, as we work to preserve the environmental and community assets that support Florida’s continued economic growth.
