THEA's FY2027-32 Work Program
THEA's adopted six-year program commits $767.7 million to the Selmon Expressway system and related mobility assets. About $635 million, or 83%, is directed to enhancement and capacity projects. The program includes South Selmon, Whiting Street, East Selmon, ITS deployment, preservation and drainage work, giving the authority a defined multi-year delivery program beyond a single project.
City Transportation Projects in Design and Procurement
The City of Tampa's transportation capital dashboard currently lists 25 projects in design and one in procurement, alongside projects in planning and construction. The design-stage queue includes complete streets, resurfacing, ADA, signal and mobility work. Each project carries its own scope, funding and schedule before it reaches the City's formal selection or bidding process.
FDOT District 7 State Transportation Program
FDOT District 7 manages a separate five-year program covering Hillsborough and surrounding counties. The work program includes planning, preliminary engineering, right-of-way, construction and public transportation phases. Tampa-area state projects therefore move through a different owner, funding and procurement structure from City or THEA projects.
