According to the plan, the core line would connect uptown to City Hall. Later connections would include other routes, mostly north of Mitchell Hammock Road.
The priciest projects in the plan are road extensions, including $2.24 million to extend Oviedo Boulevard to Alexandria Boulevard and $2.4 million to connect Oviedo Medical Drive to Winter Springs Boulevard.
The mobility plan would add Oviedo to the growing list of Central Florida towns looking into driverless electric shuttles as an alternative to widening roads.
