Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon

Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons

The Florida Department of Transportation District Seven installed four new crosswalks with pedestrian hybrid beacons on Busch Boulevard in Temple Terrace and Tampa in December 2020 – including one at Overlook Drive. The crosswalks provide more options for pedestrians to safely cross the busy roadway. Check out this video link provided by Bike/Walk Tampa Bay to learn more about the using these enhancements to our City.
