Tampa Bay Express (TBX) Community Workshop September 21

The Tampa Bay Express (TBX) is a series of projects, currently in the Project Development & Environment study phase, comprising nearly 50 miles of roadway construction, including replacement of the northbound Howard Frankland Bridge and reconstruction of the interchanges at I-275/SR 60 in the Westshore Business District and the I-275-I-4 in downtown Tampa. The project also includes the addition of express lanes in the median of I-275 and I-4 and premium transit opportunities throughout the system. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is inviting interested citizens to participate in TBX Community Engagement Workshops. The purpose of the workshops is to provide a status update on the proposed community enhancements from the three rounds of design charrettes held over the past year for the following sections of the Tampa Bay Express Project: I-4/I-275 Downtown Tampa Interchange Reconstruction and Section 7 of I-275, from north of the Downtown Tampa Interchange to Bearss Avenue. The next workshop will be Wednesday, September 21, 2016, from 6:30-8:30 pm at the Seminole Heights Branch Library, 4711 Central Avenue, Tampa, FL 33603.
