Maydell Drive over Palm River Bridge Replacement PD&E/Design
Owner: Hillsborough County, Florida Location: Tampa, Florida
This Hillsborough County/FDOT LAP project consists of replacing the existing 616-foot bridge, reconstructing the roadway approaches, and providing pedestrian connectivity. The structurally deficient bridge has been closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic for several years. The bridge is highly visible as you drive east on the Selmon Expressway, and it is a great opportunity to showcase KCA’s diverse capabilities to Hillsborough County. The KCA team is providing a PD&E, final design plans, specifications, and construction phase support for this project. Seeking an accelerated design schedule, KCA plans to guide the County through the FDOT State-Wide Acceleration Transformation (SWAT) process.
KCA is currently designing a segment of the TBC Trail as part of this project. This project services as the critical node between the SCG Trail, Selmon Greenway, and TBC Trail. The Maydell Drive project includes a proposed bridge that accommodates the SCG Trail across Palm River while the adjacent proposed roadway segments will facilitate the future trail needed to connect the SCG to the Selmon Greenway and TBC Trail.
