The Florida Department of Transportation is developing construction plans to add lanes and reconstruct a 2.4 mile segment of the SR 574 (Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard) from east of Kingsway Road to east of McIntosh Road in Hillsborough County.

The roadway will be widened from a two lane road to a four lane divided roadway with raised medians. Other improvements will include: bike lanes on both sides of the roadway, sidewalk on the north side of the roadway, intersection improvements at Valrico Road and McIntosh Road and replacement of a low level bridge.

Right of way acquisition will be required for the proposed roadway improvements, storm water management ponds and flood plain mitigation sites.

Right of way: Acquisition is currently underway.

Construction is anticipated to begin in 2025.
