Corridor 2: Symmes Road - US 41 to I-75 The Symmes Road corridor is an east-west corridor in the Gibsonton Community Plan area. The study section is almost two miles long, starting at US Highway 41 and continuing west to Interstate 75 as illustrated by Figure 7-16. The two-lane roadway has a volume of 6,600 AADT (2021) with a right-of-way width that ranges from 60 to 98 feet. There are sidewalks on the north side of the roadway, but sidewalks on the south side of the roadway have major gaps. No bicycle facilities are provided. There is limited local transit service on US Highway 41, but no transit service is available on Symmes Road. The corridor is characterized by suburban scale single family neighborhoods served by a small commercial node at the US Highway 41 intersection. The neighborhoods access Symmes Road via sparsely spaced connections, with very few homes having direct access to the street.
