This initiative focuses on tackling infrastructure challenges related to school transportation in Hillsborough County, such as congestion and safety concerns impacting neighborhoods. The county is working on cooperative efforts involving school administrations, law enforcement, and the public to enhance traffic control, fund safety projects, and create safe walking routes. Key initiatives include reducing speed zones, implementing traffic control devices, and enhancing off-site standing locations. Funding has been allocated for safety and circulation projects to improve school access and traffic flow.
