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.

Greenways and Trails Master Plan
Project description
This document is an update to the original Greenways Master Plan of 1995 that supports and guides the development of natural corridors, unpaved trails, recreational waterways for non-motorized boats (blueways), and paved trails. Through extensive public engagement, Hillsborough County developed a vision plan for the future, and an action plan including recommended next steps to support greenways and trails in pursuing grant opportunities.

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.
