The Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) has scheduled a Public Kick-Off Meeting to discuss the Beach Corridor Rapid Transit Project. The Beach Corridor has been identified as one of the rapid transit corridors in the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit (SMART) Plan. The project consists of a study examining technology and alignment for rapid transit alternatives along North Miami Avenue in the City of Miami and Alton Road or Washington Avenue in the City of Miami Beach. The project goal is to connect the Miami Design District/Midtown and Downtown Miami, along I-395/SR A1A (MacArthur Causeway) or I-195/SR112 (Julia Tuttle Causeway) to the Miami Beach Convention Center area. This meeting will be held in an informal, open house format to provide an opportunity for the public to learn about the project, become familiar with the study process, and provide initial feedback. There will be a brief presentation at 6:15 p.m.
