Hope somebody can check it out soon to get the new exit numbers so I can put it onto the site. ;)

As of now, the exits for the extension are as follows:
55 | US-98
60 | CR-482 / Cardinal Dr
The FL-44 exit is not numbered, but the ramp breaks off around MM 67.5.

And a bonus:
25 | CR-524 / Ridge Rd (partially open; northbound exit, southbound entrance)

Nice! Will get this pushed once we've settled on how to deal with I-4's numbering changes in the 82 to 84 range because of the new Express lanes. ;)

Oh, and I honestly had Ridge Road pegged as Exit 24 (already had it in the file as that, but hidden).  But that's been fixed while making it visible.

And hmmm, I wonder why they changed US-98 from 54 -> 55 as well.  But then again, looking at historical StreetView, seems the number was never officially posted.  So, meh. lol.

Anyways, also added an *OldFL589 point just before the new interchange where the route original diverted over to the original location for the intersection with US-98.  The '54' point will be hidden under it instead of 55, due to that being a completely new alignment for the extension.  This way, people will be able to have the choice of how they want to mark their travels in that location.
