Abstract This document presents the Outreach Plan for the Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) Connected Vehicle (CV) Pilot Deployment. The goal of the pilot deployment is to advance and enable safe, interoperable, networked wireless communications among vehicles and the infrastructure in order to reduce traffic congestion, improve safety and decrease emissions. The pilot deployment is proceeding in three phases: (1) concept development; (2) design, implementation and testing; and (3) operation, maintenance, impact assessment and performance measurement. This Outreach Plan is a revised version of the Connected Vehicle Pilot Deployment Program Phase 1 Outreach Plan–Tampa (THEA). The Outreach Plan is a high-level plan for the management of outreach activities throughout the deployment phases (phases 2 and 3). Key elements of the plan include the development of a pilot website; local outreach strategy; on-site tours and demonstrations; conference and trade show strategy; media relations strategy; and coordination of communications efforts with USDOT. 17.

Since 1980, the National Main Street Center has been working with communities across the nation to revitalize their historic or traditional commercial areas. The Main Street program is designed to improve all aspects of the downtown. The Main Street approach has rekindled entrepreneurship, downtown cooperation and civic concern. It has earned national recognition as a practical means of utilizing and improving a community’s local resources and conditions. Because it is a locally driven program, all of what is done stems from local issues and concerns. The City of Clearwater was designated a Florida Main Street Community in August 1998. The program utilizes the Main Street four-point approach using the Joint Venture as its organizational branch. The Joint Venture is made up of a City Council (formerly Commission) appointed member, the Executive Director of the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), the Downtown Development Board (DDB) Chairperson, co-chairpersons from the Design, Economic Development and Promotion committees and the Main Street Program Coordinator.
