Florida State Road 60 - East


The original configuration of Florida 60 east at Interstate 275 took all traffic from both the airport and Memorial Highway onto I-275 south via a single ramp. The adjacent northbound off-ramp to Cypress Street was removed as new ramps were built to the Howard Frankland Bridge from both the SR 60 mainline and Tampa Airport Interchange. 03/18/06

The previous departure point for the southbound I-275 ramp to St. Petersburg existed below the flyover carrying drivers from I-275 north onto SR 60 west. This ramp was relocated to the right to join an extended ramp from George J. Bean Parkway and Cypress Street south onto the Howard Frankland Bridge in 2006. 07/30/06

Passing under the Interstate 275 freeway, SR 60 east reached the loop ramp to I-275 north. SR 60 continues along West Kennedy Boulevard toward Downtown, parallel to I-275. 03/18/06
