Three motor vehicle bridges cross [[Tampa Bay]] to [[Pinellas County, Florida|Pinellas County]] from Tampa city limits: the [[Howard Frankland Bridge]] ([[Interstate 275 (Florida)|I-275]]), the [[Courtney Campbell Causeway]] ([[Florida State Road 60|SR 60]]), and the [[Gandy Bridge]] ([[U.S. 92]]). The old Gandy Bridge was completely replaced by new spans during the 1990s, but a span of the old bridge was saved and converted into a pedestrian and biking bridge renamed The Friendship Trail. It was the longest overwater recreation trail in the world.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.floridabicycle.org/messenger/99winbridge.html|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080613093311/http://www.floridabicycle.org/messenger/99winbridge.html|url-status=dead|title=Friendship Trail Bridge Claims Status as Longest Overwater Recreation Trail|archivedate=June 13, 2008}}</ref> However, the bridge was closed in 2008 due to structural problems.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/dec/23/na-its-final-friendship-trail-bridge-is-closed/news-metro/ |title=It's Final: Friendship TrailBridge Is Closed |publisher=.tbo.com |date=December 23, 2008 |access-date=February 23, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081223183756/http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/dec/23/na-its-final-friendship-trail-bridge-is-closed/news-metro/ |archive-date=December 23, 2008}}</ref>

Tampa has several freeways which serve the city. There are two tolled freeways bringing traffic in and out of Tampa. The [[Lee Roy Selmon Expressway]] (SR 618), runs from suburban [[Brandon, Florida|Brandon]] at its eastern terminus, through Downtown Tampa, to the neighborhoods in South Tampa (near [[MacDill Air Force Base]]) at its western terminus. The [[Florida State Road 589|Veterans Expressway]] (SR 589), meanwhile connects [[Tampa International Airport]] and the bay bridges to the northwestern suburbs of [[Carrollwood, Florida|Carrollwood]], [[Greater Northdale, Florida|Northdale]], [[Westchase, Florida|Westchase]], [[Citrus Park, Florida|Citrus Park]], [[Cheval, Florida|Cheval]], and [[Lutz, Florida|Lutz]], before continuing north as the [[Florida State Road 589|Suncoast Parkway]] into [[Pasco County, Florida|Pasco]] and [[Hernando County, Florida|Hernando]] counties.

Three of the city's freeways carry the [[interstate highway system|interstate highway]] designation. [[Interstate 4]] and [[Interstate 275 (Florida)|Interstate 275]] cut across the city and intersect near downtown. [[Interstate 75 in Florida|Interstate 75]] runs along the east side of town for much of its route through [[Hillsborough County, Florida|Hillsborough County]] until veering to the west to bisect New Tampa.

Along with the city's freeways, major surface roads serve as main arteries of the city. These roads are [[Hillsborough Avenue]] ([[U.S. Route 92|U.S. 92]] and [[U.S. Route 41 in Florida|U.S. 41]]), [[Dale Mabry Highway]] ([[U.S. Route 92|U.S. 92]]), [[Florida State Road 45|Nebraska Avenue (U.S. 41/SR 45)]], [[U.S. Route 41 Business (Tampa, Florida)|Florida Avenue (U.S. 41 Business)]], [[Bruce B. Downs Boulevard]], [[Florida State Road 582|Fowler Avenue]], Busch Boulevard, [[Florida State Road 60|Kennedy Boulevard (SR 60)]], [[Florida State Road 60|Adamo Drive]], and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
