Westshore Interchange Bike Audit Series

The Westshore Alliance alongside Atkins Realis, FDOT District 7, and Pedal Power Promoters conducted three bike audit rides over the past few months to review existing conditions, areas of concern, and proposed plans for the Westshore District with the construction of the Westshore Interchange. The Westshore Interchange will include the reconnection of three neighborhood streets (Reo Street, Occident Street, Trask Street) and will be accompanied by a new Shared Use Path that will connect to the Howard Frankland Bridge trail.
