Miami-Dade commissioners and representatives of municipalities in the county have begun a process to radically change the way transportation projects are planned locally in a bid to speed up the creation of new services such as express buses or light-rail systems.
Many people who live in Broward and Palm Beach counties, but have jobs in Miami-Dade, would like Tri-Rail to operate trains all the way to downtown Miami. Currently, Tri-Rail operates west of I-95 between Palm Beach County and Miami International Airport.
Moreover, several county commissioners who have influence over local transportation issues have said they want to see projects that benefit mass transit, not cars.
