Tampa's Downtown
Getting Around
Getting From One Area of Downtown to Another is Easy
Downtown is Tampa Bay’s central transportation hub with several options available throughout the week and weekend. Think outside of the car! Get to your destination quickly via HART’s new streamlined bus network, TECO Line Streetcar, bike path routes, complete sidewalk network, water taxi, taxi, e-scooter, and/or rideshare (Uber/Lyft).
Public Transportation
There are plenty of options to get around downtown Tampa. Take a ride in Tampa Bay’s first autonomous, electric shuttle, the HART Smart AV. There are even water taxis that traverse the river. The historic streetcars are steadily gaining use as a means for downtown Tampa public transportation, and are a big bonus during major events.
Ride Service
The Downtowner vehicles operate seven days a week within Downtown Tampa’s business district, Channel District, River Arts District, the University of Tampa area, as well as the non-gated north end of Harbour Island. This is a service of the Tampa Downtown Partnership.
