"The best way to get around Tampa"

If you are moving to Tampa the Cross Town is a must! Although it is a toll road the fee is not outragous and it is definatly the best maintaned road system in Tampa bay. The Cross Town gets you every where you need to go and with a sunpass paying your tolls is easy with no stopping at the booths. There is of course no street lights on the cross town so it is pretty much smooth and fast most of the time. On a rare occastion you will get a break down or a fender bender but be prepaired to move fast on the road as it is used by locals with a speed problem!

"Oldie but a Goodie"

Brandon Blvd is also called Highway 60. It is the main highway in and out of Tampa. Highway 60 was the major highway back before the Interstate system was put in and it is still a major trucking route. The highway is packed most of the day and there is ALWAYS construction on highway 60!! During rush hour be prepaired for at least one accident a day! Try to take side streets around it during rush hour however if there is a problem on the interstate you can take it as an alternative or if you just want to avoid the interstatea all together.

"Great View of the Bay"

The sky way bridge is a mile high bridge that connects Tampa to St. Pete. On a sunny day I would recommend taking the skyway if you are not afraid of hights! The view of the bay is breath taking! I would not however take the bridge when it is raining! As a matter of fact due to the hight of the bridge if the wind gets to hard they will close it. Be prepaired to get a little bit of shaking due again to the hight but it is well maintanced. Make sure you have good tires and are not going to break down because getting someone to rescue you is very difficult and hazardous.

"College Kids dream"

Fowler Avenue runs right in front of the Univerity of South Florida. It is the main road for traffic to the Univeristy, therefore it is extremely busy at all times of the day, A few years ago Tampa widened the road and the traffic has gotton better but becareful as road work is an almost constant on the road as it is such a draw to the area. There is plenty of supermarkets, cleaning, apartments and such on the road. The area is patroled quite often by the police and you will even see the campus police on the road every once in a while.

"Acess to the Interstate"

Hillsbrough Ave comes off of the major interstate in Tampa I-4 and runs out of the county to Ocala, The first part of the street is a bit run down put as you progress through the county toward Ocala it is rather nice and there is plenty of shopping along the way. It is a major street in the area so there is stop and go traffic and many street lights. The road is maintained pretty well once you get past the first two or three miles of it.

"USF Bull's Area"

N. Florida is a great area! If you are looking for a younger crowd then you will find it in this area. The street is adjacent to the University of South Florida and there are a lot of local conveniencies around such as supermarkets and fast food resturants. Also the Muesum of Science and Industrary is with in a few miles There are several apartment complexes and condos in the area. Tampa has a great public transportation system and the busing system runs extensively in this area due to the University. It is a a very busy road however so make sure you give yourself extra time in the area. Oh also for some reason my experience has always been if I was looking for something it was always on the other side of the street so I would always have to pull a U Turn so be prepaired for that!

"Major Artery to MCDill AFB"

Dale Mabry is a major Artery through Tampa ending at McDill Air Force Base. During rush hour traffic it is very packed with accidents happening almost on a daily bases. If you need to use it to get to work I would suggest you leave about 30 minutes earlier then you had planned. There are a lot of restaurants along the road. As far as night life is concerned it is mostly of the "live" entertainment variety, so the neigherhood can get a little rough at night.
