Additional land use and infrastructure resources and information

These studies and plans are used as reference documents, or are other countywide related documents, that integrate land use and infrastructure related projects. 

Complete Streets Guide

Project description

Complete Streets are roadways that are designed and operated to provide safe, accessible, and healthy travel for all users of the roadway system. This refines a street’s Context Based Classification into typologies that fit seamlessly into a community’s vision for its future. It accomplishes this by acting as a bridge between Future Land Use, Livable Communities, and Transportation policies in the Comprehensive Plan. It allows street design to prioritize the type of users utilizing a roadway based on existing and planned development patterns.

Level of Service Report - 2020

Project description

A comprehensive listing of major County and State maintained roadways within unincorporated Hillsborough County and their operating conditions based upon recent counts. Level of Service (LOS) is determined using the volume to capacity ratio (v/c ratio). Although the relationship between LOS and v/c is not an exact one, there is still a general correlation between the two that can help us determine how well a roadway is functioning.

PLAT Process

Project description

PLAT Studies, or Preliminary Land Use Assessment and Transportation Studies, help us to understand how we can balance development patterns and transportation infrastructure. They help with identifying appropriate transportation improvements for an area that can then go through the PD&E process and into the CIP.
