About this Project
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has completed rehabilitating the concrete travel lanes and interchange ramps of Interstate 275 from Floribraska Avenue to Yukon Street (south of Busch Blvd.) in Hillsborough County, Florida.

A diamond grinding process was used after the rehabilitation was completed to provide a smooth roadway surface. Bridge rails and guardrail were also upgraded and the existing curb and gutter was replaced with shoulder gutter.

Floribraska Avenue, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard (MLK), Sligh Avenue, and Hillsborough Avenue were resurfaced within the limited access area of the interstate. Signal improvements were made at the MLK and Sligh Avenue ramp intersections, as well as roadway lighting improvements on the I-275 mainline.


Lane Closure Hours were
* Mainline and ramps: 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
* Hillsborough Ave., Floribraska Ave., Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., Sligh Ave., and Bird Street: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. & 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.
