[ARCHIVED] South Corridor Rapid Transit Project Groundbreaking Ceremony

SOUTH CORRIDOR RAPID TRANSIT PROJECT: On Friday, June 4th at 10 a.m., you're invited to the groundbreaking ceremony for the upcoming South Corridor Rapid Project at the SW 296 Street Park and Ride. 

This project will provide 20 miles of exclusive transit right-of-way, parallel to US-1, with signal preemption, offering an easy 60-minute ride from Homestead to Downtown Miami. The project will also include 14 newly constructed iconic rapid transit stations, improvements to the two end-of-line terminals at Dadeland South and SW 344 Street, and the rehabilitation of the 16 existing stations along the corridor. 

The project will also offer new state-of-the-art BRT stations with rail-like amenities and efficiencies for a fast, comfortable, and cost-effective ride. Additionally, the 14 BRT stations will include level boarding, off-board fare collection, real-time messaging for bus arrivals, closed circuit TV, free Wi-Fi and other amenities such as air-conditioned vestibules, emergency call boxes, bike racks, benches, and device charging stations.
