The City of Tampa is pleased to submit to you, for review and certification by the Independent Oversight Committee, our “All for Transportation” Surtax for Transportation Improvements 2021 Project Plan. The 2021 Project Plan will enable the City to continue expediting completion of a significant backlog of transportation projects throughout the City, and allow us to rebuild critical transportation infrastructure, better manage our traffic congestion, improve safety for all users of our streets, and provide more ways for people to travel.

Moving forward, we will be working with the community to complete a major update to our Citywide Mobility Master Plan, that will establish a long-term program of transportation projects that address the many transportation needs in our community over the next thirty years.
