About

This project will modify the existing diamond interchange of I-75 and Gibsonton Drive into a Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI).

As part of this modification:

  • Add a deceleration lane along northbound I-75 and widen the existing northbound exit to Gibsonton Drive to 2-lanes
  • Provide separate on-ramps for eastbound and westbound Gibsonton Drive to northbound I-75. The on-ramp from westbound Gibsonton Drive will be converted to a 2-lane on-ramp and be built on a separate bridge structure over the Alafia River with an acceleration lane extending along northbound I-75 to north of Riverview Drive
  • Convert the existing southbound I-75 exit to Gibsonton to two lanes
  • Widen Gibsonton Drive from west of New East Bay Road to east of Fern Hill Drive

**This project is currently not funded for construction**
