Project Description:
The Tampa-Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) currently owns and operates the nine-mile Reversible Lanes Bridge built in the median of the existing Selmon Crosstown Expressway. To alleviate congestion, traffic on the new three-lane expressway flows westbound into downtown during morning commute times and reverses to eastbound during evening peak travel times. The new structure gives commuters a nonstop route from Brandon to downtown via the new Tampa Downtown Gateway at Meridian Avenue.

Transdyn designed, developed, integrated, commissioned, and supports this project that required a number of ITS components to manage, control and operate the roadway. The new system integrates and automates various ITS functions such as warning gates, barrier gates, variable and changeable message signs, video surveillance, vehicle detection and verification, and information dissemination.
