Public to Drive Transit Solutions
"8 More Times"

Several years ago the public voiced their opinions loud and clear:  Hillsborough has transportation problems

The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners answered those concerns by seating a Transportation Task Force (TTF) to study the issue, identify problems and find solutions.  Last year, the TTF submitted their report and voted unanimously on a series of solutions which became Transportation Hillsborough (roads & pedestrian improvements) and the Rapid Transit Investment Plan (transit related solutions). 
 
After more than 235 public meetings, planning and engineering evaluations, a decision on two of the transit solutions is fast approaching. In keeping with a pledge to be open, inclusive and accountable, another round of public meetings is being held before moving to a final decision on the Northeast and West rapid transit corridors.
