March/Rally to Stop the TBX I-275 Boondoggle

Saturday, April 2, 2016 at 11am Join the Growing Coalition of Neighborhoods standing up against FDOT's plan to widen I-275

Join us April 2, 2016 and make this the largest protest march to StopTBX!

On April 2nd at 11am, we will march near Malfunction Junction in Tampa Heights and VM Ybor, highlighting the impacts that urban highway construction and expansion has had on Tampa's urban core, and the additional harm TBX expansion will cause to neighborhoods still struggling to recover from FDOT's past "improvements".

We are meeting at the Tampa Youth Development & Community Center, which is itself a target of TBX, and will have to be moved from its current location if TBX is built.
