About
The FDOT is constructing a new I-4 Truck Parking Facility at the southwest corner of the I-4 and County Line Road interchange in Hillsborough County.
The new I-4 Truck Parking Facility is being built on a 49-acre FDOT-owned site and will provide 160 truck parking spaces.
The new facility will be integrated into Florida’s Truck Parking Availability System (TPAS) to provide drivers with real-time parking availability information via a mobile application and dynamic roadside signs.
Improvements include:
- Replacing the traffic signal and providing dual right and left turn lanes from the eastbound I-4 exit ramp onto County Line Road.
- Adding a traffic signal and providing dual right and left turn lanes from the westbound I-4 exit ramp onto County Line Road.
- Reducing the radii and adding truck aprons to accommodate trucks.
- Modifying traffic signals and reconfiguring travel lanes along County Line Road to reduce truck delays and improve mobility.
- Installing new signage and pavement markings, highway lighting, and ITS systems.
- Installing a 175-foot pole, displaying an 80 x 50-foot American flag and a 30 x 20-foot state of Florida flag
Construction activities on the $29.4 million project are expected to finish in late 2026.

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.
