Figure 62 shows the multimodal accessibility and barriers in Riverview. Transit accessibility in Riverview is moderate or low with one cell of high accessibility at the intersection of US 301 and Gibsonton Drive. Areas with moderate transit accessibility are along Gibsonton Drive/Boyette Road and extend south along US 301, Balm Riverview Road, and McMullen Booth Road. Cycling accessibility in Riverview ranges from low to high but is predominantly moderate or low. Areas with high cycling accessibility are seen east of US 301 and along Gibsonton Drive/Boyette Road, and Symmes Road. These areas of high and very high cycling accessibility are consistent with bike lanes identified in the Riverview inventory (Figure 52). Walking accessibility in Riverview is predominantly low with pockets of moderate or high accessibility throughout. Areas with high accessibility are near the intersection of Gibsonton Drive/Boyette Road and Balm Riverview Road, the intersection of Gibsonton Drive/Boyette Road and McMullen Road, and pockets along Symmes Road east of US 301.

The multimodal accessibility barriers in Riverview are concentrated along I-75 and US 301, which is expected because of the speed and function of these roadways. Additional barriers can
