The Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) voted late Tuesday night to keep plans for additional lanes to 275 in the county’s five-year transportation plan. The project includes adding a lane to I-275 between Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and Bearss Avenue, making the 8-mile stretch four lanes in each direction, as well as making changes to the downtown interchange by adding a lane to the flyover ramp connecting southbound I-275 and Interstate 4.
