The Tampa Bay Express is a series of projects, currently in the Project Development and Environmental phase, comprising nearly 50 miles of roadway improvements, including replacement of the northbound Howard Frankland Bridge and reconstruction of the interchanges at I-275/SR 60 in the Westshore Business District and I-275/I—4 in downtown Tampa. The project also includes the addition of express lanes in the median of I-275 and I-4 and premium transit opportunities throughout the system.
