Miami-Dade’s Commission had a special meeting scheduled for this morning on an easement for the Brightline pedestrian bridge in Aventura.
The bridge would cross Biscayne Boulevard, allowing a direct connection from the Brightline Aventura station to the Aventura Mall property.
A sketch depicting the easement shows a 1,325 square foot building proposed at the corner of 196th Street at, where the east end of the bridge is to be located.
Brightline contracted for fabrication of the bridge, which has already been completed, a memo says. The bridge pieces have now been sitting in storage for months, according to a previous report.
Time is of the essence to secure the necessary easement in light of the time restrictions set forth in a Development Agreement between Brightline and Miami-Dade, the resolution notes.
