Project Location

Anclote Road from Anclote Blvd. to Alternate US 19

Project Status

Study: In progress

Project Overview

Anclote Road is a 2.4-mile collector road serving underdeveloped industrial and commercial areas, a work release center and residential areas in unincorporated Pinellas County and the City of Tarpon Springs. The County has identified this area as a Target Employment Center for economic development which will allow increased density for uses such as manufacturing, office and research and development.

Objectives for improving this corridor include:

  • Provide multimodal access to industrial, workforce and residential areas
  • Improve safety
  • Improve stormwater management

This project’s Preliminary Engineering Report (PER) is under development. The PER study will include the areas designated as Phase 1, 2 and 3. A PER is a planning document that lays the foundation for the design and construction phases of a project. It’s used to understand the existing conditions, economic and environmental impacts, financial obligations and funding sources, and the operations and maintenance considerations for the project.

The PER will identify feasible alternatives, including a comparison with a No-Build option. The County received federal funding for the project and is currently coordinating with federal agencies and preparing to move forward with a Project Development & Environment Study (PD&E). The study will further examine those alternatives and their potential impacts to the communities and the environment. The PD&E process will include a public hearing and ultimately recommend a preferred alternative for improvements.
