New Roadways planned to connect Wesley Chapel and New Tampa

The Pasco County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is holding an open-house style public information meeting for anyone interested in the Wesley Chapel Roadways Connections Study. The purpose of the open house is to gather public comments and other information that will be useful in conducting the study. The study will evaluate the pros and cons of three potential roadway connectors in the Wesley Chapel area and help develop a Transportation Improvement Plan if and when these connections are constructed. Pasco County has not made any decisions regarding these connections.

The three Pasco County connectors the MPO is studying are:

1. Mansfield Boulevard and Kinnan Street

2. Meadow Pointe Boulevard and Meadow Pointe Boulevard extension

3. Wyndfields Boulevard and Wyndfields Boulevard extension
