Switch for Spruce Street and TPA traffic entering Memorial Highway / Westbound SR 60

By 5:30 a.m. Monday (August 31), there will be a new traffic pattern for drivers exiting Tampa International Airport (TPA) and westbound Spruce Street onto northbound… Memorial Highway / westbound State Road 60. This traffic will merge into the roadway where traffic coming from I-275 and Kennedy Boulevard was put into a new alignment on August 19. This will result in drivers from TPA and Spruce following these changes:
1. Traffic will now exit to the RIGHT (a 2-lane exit ramp) to go onto the Courtney Campbell Parkway (towards Clearwater).

a. Traffic going to Independence Parkway, Memorial Highway, Hillsborough Avenue, etc. will exit to the RIGHT north of the Courtney Campbell Parkway.

b. Drivers should closely watch for signs since after the combined exit to Independence/Memorial/Hillsborough, drivers will be on the Veterans Expressway and will have to PAY TOLLS.
