The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is conducting a Project Development & Environment (PD&E) study for the proposed Westshore Regional Multimodal Center (WRMC) in the Westshore Business District in Tampa. This study is to determine the configuration, benefits, costs, and impacts of developing and operating a multimodal center site within the business district.

The study is to be carried out in phases with a review of progress and direction at the end of each phase. The current phase was tasked with looking at the feasibility of the connection and identifying the viable TAC alignment(s) (route).

The study area includes the core of the Westshore business district, two shopping malls, and several residential neighborhoods. Specifically, it is bounded by Spruce Street/Boy Scout Boulevard to the north, Lois Avenue to the east, Kennedy Boulevard (State Road [SR] 60) to the south, and SR 60 to the west.
