The horrific state of @CityofMiami pedestrian infrastructure has claimed yet another mobility device. A week of use & my husband's wheelchair is already damaged. Now my husband missed a day of work & is at risk of being fired which would result in us being homeless again.
Dani Rivera@MiamiSeda

Around 9:30 pm last night, after working an 8 hour shift & using Metrorail & bus to commute, my husband got stuck in the middle of the @CityofMiami street. It hurt too much to stand & he couldn't get his wheelchair to move. He had to call kiddo & I to push him home! @commescalona

@IRideMDT could you please have cleaning staff wash down benches @ Douglas Road station a few times each day? They are covered in dust due to construction. We have a 10 min wait for next train but people do not want to sit.

1/3 Not only do disabled & elderly people struggle using public transit in @CityofMiami, the pedestrian infrastructure is a nightmare! Missing & broken sidewalks, most not wide enough for wheelchairs, along with no curb cuts!

Here's footage of the @CityofMiami Trolley driver actually doing a pretty good job on Tues! Functional kneeling, too! Most of the city controlled bus/trolley stops are terribly designed & the trolleys not maintained, but it's easier to work around when drivers make the effort.

1/3 This was today just before 2 pm on @CityofMiami Trolley 2097, operated by the City & @GoMiamiDade paratransit (STS) contractor. Driver pulled far away from curb, only kneels upon request, pax had to help me board. Trolley not designed for wheeled mobility devices to be stored

@IRideMDT any reason that you delay scheduled busses for half an hour so they would come then in triplets. Who is the genius that implemented this ?

Some morning confusion as the new 95 North pattern opens at the Golden Glades (Will stay like this for a year!) 🔼 One left lane exit to TPK/826/Stadium 🔼 3 right lanes continue NB 🔼 95 express access to 826/Tpk & Flyover 🚨 Expect major delays for the afternoon drive!

On Thursday (May 21) morning, there will be a big traffic shift on northbound I-95 approaching the Golden Glades Interchange. Three right general purpose lanes will shift to the right onto a newly built section starting at NW 144th St The leftmost general purpose lane will turn into an exit only lane to Turnpike and Palmetto Expressway The existing NB I-95 express exit at NW 149th St will also close. This shift will be in place for about a year and is necessary to rebuild the center part of I-95.

@mgb12470 @elonmusk Pretty sure the majority of Miami Dade wants the metrorail eyesore in every direction in the county.

Miami Florida has and continue to have exponential building growth compared to the area size and transportation infrastructure, the county is in desperate need of underground transportation posibilites. Miami-Dade has tried to sell the idea of running elevated metrorail system but no one wants that eyesore in front of their properties. If underground, it needs to be an ingenious project able to deal with underground water levels. Any ideas?

Join tunneling – the underground movement
X Freeze@XFreeze

Elon Musk on why tunnels became reality: “Everyone thought it was a joke. We made it a company” The idea behind The Boring Company is actually simple physics and geometry: Cities are becoming vertically 3D with massive skyscrapers and dense urban centers, yet transportation systems are still mostly trapped in 2D surface streets That mismatch creates unavoidable congestion A fully 3D transport network with tunnels running beneath cities could theoretically scale to almost any traffic level while dramatically reducing surface congestion Elon says there’s still enormous opportunity in tunneling and surprisingly only few companies taking it seriously

@OfficialJoelF Why not mention the early 2000s proposal to also expand MetroRail, in exchange for a half penny sales tax increase, which the voters approved, only for the county to essentially steal the money? 😤

In 1972, there were plans for a 54-mile rapid transit system reaching as far north as 163rd Street on the mainland to having a line go to Miami Beach. That idea never came to life so what we have today is a 25-mile system with no beach connection, going as far north as 79 St well west of US 1

ON THIS DAY: Metrorail started service in 1984. Rides were free on the first day, and it only serviced Dadeland South to Overtown while the rest of the line was still being built

The fact that they will spend the money to MOVE THE METROMOVER OVER FOR A HIGHWAY instead of... Y'know... BUILDING MORE METROMOVER... Is so annoying.
Joel Franco@OfficialJoelF

To accommodate the new I-395 highway in downtown Miami, a Metromover pier will have to be relocated. These photos show the steel sheet piles put in place to begin work on the foundation for the new pier. FDOT tells me this pier is expected to be completed in Q1 2027. The guideway will be supported temporarily by falsework until the load is transferred to the new pier. Foundation work is a slow process because they can only operate while Metromover is offline for upgrades on Saturday mornings
