Downtown Traffic Modeling

Downtown Tampa in the future is expected to have a significant influx of traffic during the AM and PM peak hours due to an increase in the number of access points, specifically from the I‐275 and I‐4 Express Lanes. These new access points are expected to cause traffic pattern changes internally along the local Downtown Tampa street network.

Streetcar Extension and Modernization StudyIn December 2014, the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) completed a study to explore the general feasibility of constructing a streetcar extension through downtown Tampa to the Marion Transit Center.  The study also identified improvements required to upgrade the existing system to accommodate modern street or light rail transit vehicles. Based on the results of the feasibility study and the Streetcars’s potential to serve the influx of resident and business commuters in the downtown and Channelside areas, the City of Tampa and the Florida Department of Transportation have partnered to leverage funding resources to further explore the extension and modernization of the streetcar system by performing an Alternatives Analysis Study.  This level of analysis will recommend a preferred corridor that can be carried into a Project Development & Environmental (PD&E) Study.

Downtown Train Horn Quiet Zone

In 2005 the Federal Railroad Administration issued a rule exception for local agencies or communities to establish quiet zones at railroad crossings, which waive the railroad horn sounding requirement if full‐width crossing gates, flashing lights and other safety devices are installed.  

This project consists of preparation of an engineering study to determine the feasibility and cost to implement train horn quiet zones within the City.   The study area includes InterbayDistrict, Central Business District, and Ybor City.  Study will also include public involvement with property owners and area stakeholders.
