Jackson Street Recommended Alternative Jackson Street (SR 60 Eastbound) between Tampa Street and Franklin Street and between Florida Avenue and Morgan Street Traffic volumes are low enough to consider a lane SR 60 R ESURFACING P ROJECTS elimination (or road diet) on these segments. B Parking is included on both sides of the roadway. Eliminating one of the thru lanes can help improve safety, livability and satisfy other community needs by reallocating the space for pedestrians, cyclists or on ‐ street parking. 10’ 4’ 8.5’ 12’ 12’ 8.5’ 10

Traffic Analysis is part of the process The question that must be answered when considering Jackson Street for a road diet: Does existing & future traffic demand require 3 travel lanes to function at an acceptable level of service? This is currently being studied. Existing volume does not require 3 lanes along the entire corridor. SR 60 R ESURFACING P ROJECTS Future demand is being analyzed. 24 ‐ Hour Corridor Volumes 13
Public/Stakeholder Outreach to Date Meetings have been held with interested parties along the corridor: • Property Owners & Managers SR 60 R ESURFACING P ROJECTS • Business Owners • Tampa Downtown Partnership Committee Meetings (Urban Design Committee, Transportation Committee) • MPO Committees (Bike/Ped, Citizen’s Advisory, Technical Advisory, MPO Board) • City of Tampa • Hillsborough County • Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART) • Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) 14
