Project Update 1 (June 16, 2021)

County crews have identified the trees that will be removed and replaced for the project. This project was designed and engineered to minimize the impact to existing trees and vegetation. The county has tagged the trees that will be removed with an orange ribbon and those that will be relocated with a blue ribbon. It is important to underscore that the existing tree canopy will be fully replenished with new, native Florida trees.

If you have any questions, please call our Public Services Department at 305-969-5011.

Project Update 2 (September 30, 2021)

According to the county, the design of the 136th Street Bridge Replacement project has been completed for a few months. However, the project is on hold awaiting the relocation of electrical lines by FPL and pending a permit from the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The FPL line relocation requires a regulatory permit and this has had a significant impact on the construction schedule.

The shared-use path project is on-going, but the final roadway resurfacing may need to be postponed due to the bridge project delays. The county expects the bridge project to be back on track in the next few months.

In addition to the SW 136 Street Improvement Project, Miami-Dade County is also replacing the bridge at SW 136 Street over the C100 canal. These projects are being handled by the county as individual projects. Public solicitations for the bridge replacement project are expected to be published by the end of October or beginning of November. The project construction timeline is not available at this time.
