Connecting the Region

The Lee Roy Selmon Expressway is 15-mile all-electronic toll roadway that links west Hillsborough County through downtown Tampa to Brandon. It connects Gandy Boulevard in southwest Tampa to Interstate 75 and the community of Brandon to the east. The facility is a limited access toll road with two lanes in each direction, as well as the Reversible Express Lanes (REL), which provide an additional three lanes, westbound during the morning commute from Brandon to Tampa and eastbound during the evening commute and on weekends. The revenues collected are used to improve, maintain and expand all of THEA’s assets.

A breath of fresh air in the heart of the city.

Tampa is a world-class city that encourages walking, bike riding, skating and other healthy outdoor activities, and THEA is proud to play a role. Our 1.7 mile Selmon Greenway runs east-west through downtown Tampa - mostly in the shade of the expressway - and connects with the City’s Riverwalk and our own Meridian Avenue Trail. The Greenway is open for anyone who wants to enjoy fresh air, healthy exercise and the amenities of downtown Tampa.

To create this world class urban trail for Tampa residents, THEA partnered with the City of Tampa and the Tampa Riverwalk. This is an excellent example of how local organizations can pool their resources and capabilities and work together for the benefit of all.
