There’s probably not a community within any metropolitan area of the world that doesn’t want better roads. New Tampa and Wesley Chapel are no different and it seems this month all the news is about improving local roads which will be welcome by all. Of course, the timing is never soon enough!
Today, Laura Kinsler of the Tampa Tribune reports on the future widening of Bruce B. Downs in New Tampa to 8 lanes. It looks like BBD in New Tampa “eventually” will be widened in 3 sections:
Section 1: From Palm Springs Drive to Pebble Creek Drive. Start Date: Winter 2009? Completion in 2011?
Section 2: Pebble Creek Dr. to County Line Rd. Start Date: 2011—completion 2013?
Section 3: Bearss to Palm Springs Dr. Start date and completion “to be determined”?

Get used to the photo attached to this post. Given all the planned roadwork in New Tampa and Wesley Chapel, it may become our "community logo" for the next several years.
No mention lately of the “East-West Connector”, but it’s about time that we hear about another new delay in this troubled proposed New Tampa toll road connecting BBD to I-275!
Note: I simply add the ? on all planned completion dates!
