## About

This project will improve the urban corridor on SR 580 (Busch Blvd) from N Dale Mabry Hwy to Nebraska Avenue in Tampa, Hillsborough County.

Key improvements within the project limits include:

• Milling and resurfacing the roadway pavement

• Narrowing the travel lanes to 10 feet

• Reducing the posted speed limit to 35 mph

• Improving the sidewalk connectivity on the south side of Busch Blvd (where possible)

• Adding and reconstructing the medians along the corridor

• Enhancing the pedestrian safety improvements at intersections

• Upgrading the corridor lighting, pavement markings, and signage

• Installing a new traffic signal at Rome Circle and reconstructing two traffic signals at Florida Avenue and Nebraska Avenue

• Placing the Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) to connect to Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) bus stops on the north and south sides of Busch Boulevard near Oakleaf Avenue.

Construction is anticipated to begin in early 2026.
