This project requests $19,156,129 in TIGER VII funding to complete the two Pinellas Trail Loop gaps, a North Gap and a South Gap. Figure 2 portrays the Loop gaps in detail. Table 1 shows the overall project cost and funding, by source. A budget is available in Appendix A.
As the remaining segments of the Pinellas Trail Loop will be constructed using a design-build contract, a more detailed budget will be developed during project design, and is therefore not yet available. Alternative alignments and crossings are available, if necessary, to compensate for any unanticipated expenses.
