About
This design-build project is replacing the existing asphalt pavement with a concrete surface at the intersection of US 301 and Big Bend Road (CR 672) in Hillsborough County.
Additionally, travel lanes are being added to Big Bend Road (CR 672) from Simmons Loop to US 301.
Work requiring lane closures is occurring from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. (westbound) and 10 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. (eastbound).
Access to driveways, sidewalks, and side streets continue to be maintained.
Please use caution when traveling through the work zone and remain alert for pedestrians and construction workers.
************************************************************************
What is design-build? Design-build is a method of project delivery in which one entity - the design-build team - works under a single contract with the FDOT (or any owner) to fully design and construct a project. The contract work covers from initial design through construction completion. This contract type typically allows for faster construction of a project as design and construction can be on-going simultaneously.

New Traffic Pattern Coming to US 301 and Big Bend Road
Riverview, FL – Beginning this week, a new traffic pattern will shift all travel lanes on US 301 to the west side of the road and through the Big Bend Road (County Road 672) intersection in Riverview.
The new traffic pattern will provide two travel lanes on northbound and southbound US 301, allowing the next phase of construction to begin on the east side of the roadway. This traffic pattern will continue through the summer of 2027.
To avoid congestion and traffic delays, motorists may want to consider alternate routes (Gibsonton Drive and Sun City Center Boulevard). Drivers are reminded to slow down, stay alert, and drive safely through the work zone.
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is widening Big Bend Road (CR 672) between Simmons Loop and US 301 to a six-lane divided roadway and replacing the intersection’s existing asphalt pavement with a concrete surface at US 301 and Big Bend Road in Hillsborough County.
