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 connecting the Miami Design District (at or near NE 41st Street and NE 2nd Avenue) to 5th Street and Alton Road in Miami Beach, primarily along North Miami Avenue, NE 1st Avenue, NE 2nd Street, SR 5/US 1 (Biscayne Boulevard), and I-395/SR A1A (MacArthur Causeway). 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.
