City to make Westshore Boulevard a complete street

Pedestrian_Westshore_trafficThe City of Tampa is looking at ways to make Westshore Blvd a “complete street.” This study will develop feasible “complete street” alternatives based on the recommendations from the Westshore District Public Realm Master Plan. This plan, developed by the University of South Florida’s Florida Center for Community Design and Research, provides a framework to make the Westshore district more pedestrian-friendly as new businesses and residents move to the area.

The Study area for the Westshore Boulevard Complete Street Feasibility Study is the public right-of-way on Westshore Blvd from Kennedy Blvd (SR 60) to Spruce St (SR 616). The study should be complete in February 2014.
