Road Improvements for New Tampa & Wesley Chapel

• Widening of S.R. 54 in Wesley Chapel is planned for last this year or beginning in 2007.
• Extension of S.R. 56 to Morris Bridge Road is planned for this year, but its completion date is uncertain at this time.
• Widening of Bruce B. Downs in New Tampa (Hillsborough) has been delayed.
• Widening of I-75 Southbound from S.R. 56 to the I-275 apex has begun and will take about a year according to the Florida Department of Transportation. One additional lane is included in the plan at this time, ultimately widening I-75 to a total of six lanes over the next six years. Additionally, a high tension cable barrier will be installed South of the apex to Bearss. Some of you may have noticed some earth movement off of the interstate and just North of County Line Road. This is a retention pond.
• East-West Corridor road connecting Bruce B. Downs to I-275 has been delayed but is still on the books
• Widening of Cross Creek Blvd. is planned and construction should begin this year, for four lanes from Bruce B. Downs, but not all the way to Morris Bridge Road. Additional improvements include traffic lights.
• Widening of County Line Road in Meadow Pointe is now complete.
