## About

This project is adding landscaping along the I-275 corridor at select locations outside of the roadway, at interchanges, and near Robles Park in Tampa.

The landscape design will utilize a diverse mix of site appropriate, Florida-friendly plant species that will increase the tree canopy and compliment the roadway aesthetics, while prioritizing public safety.

Construction is expected to finish during late 2026.
