Investing in Neighborhoods

We have increased our annual investment in neighborhood road improvements 138% since fiscal year 2003.

A commitment to the basics means a focus on neighborhood streets through our Investing in Neighborhoods program. This year we have increased funding by an additional 13% taking our annual investment to $6.2 million, a 138% increase since fiscal year 2003. These projects - signage, street resurfacing and maintenance, traffic calming devices, and sidewalks - are essential to maintaining our neighborhoods. They impact our overall quality of life and we will continue to commit additional resources to these neighborhood improvement projects.

Road Resurfacing and Maintenance:

Our program this year will repave approximately 36 miles of roadway.

Street Signage:

Our signage program includes street name signs, illuminated signs, traffic signs and marking installations. This year we expect to replace 5,000 signs throughout our city and four intersections will receive illuminated signs.

Sidewalks:

Our sidewalk program will install and repair nearly eight miles of sidewalk this year to help ensure pedestrian safety and contribute to our sense of community.

Traffic Calming:

Traffic calming devices help promote and maintain the safety and livability of our residential streets. This year more than five projects are planned throughout Tampa's neighborhoods.
