Map Shows Train Stations Planned For Northeast Corridor

A total of seven stations are shown on a map of a new rail line planned from Downtown Miami to Aventura known as the Northeast Corridor.

The map is published on Miami-Dade County’s website. It shows the stations are planned at:

  • MiamiCentral
  • Wynwood – NE 29 Street
  • Design District – NE 41 Street
  • Little Haiti – NE 61 Street
  • North Miami – NE 123 Street
  • FIU North Campus – NE 151 Street
  • Aventura

The map also shows a planned Metromover extension, with stations at:

  • N Miami Ave & NW 40 Street
  • Herald Plaza
  • Washington Avenue & 5th Street

The Northeast Corridor completed the Project Development phase, Brightline said in May.

Bring the Metromover to Wynwood, Midtown, Edgewater, Little Havana, the port and South Beach. Then have a Metromower running in South beach from South of Fifth to North Beach and Sunny Isle.

Why are we so behind in public transportation in Miami!?!

You Metromoversexuals know deep down that expanding Metromover will take literally 2 cars off the road. Your real concern is getting your drunk selfs home from clubs without paying a fare.

This argument makes no sense, yet it’s the same tired argument boomers love to use so they don’t have to pay one extra dollar in taxes. Using myself and my neighbors as an example, we live in south Edgewater in walking distance to the Mover. I know many people who take the Mover into Brickell every day, all of whom would be forced to use a car to get to work if the Mover didn’t exist. Pretty tough concept I know. Let me know if you need me to explain it in a more dumbed-down fashion.

you could easily double decker the median into the Metrorail line, like they have in Brownsville on NW 27th Ave.

No – Run the mover down Meridian to the convention center and Lincoln road where the homes could use a boost of economic activity and people rely on transportation and then the beach side can keep its vibe.

Meridian is the only street with lush, historic trees lining the road for miles of South Beach. Do you propose we remove these trees for this development? Think again and good luck on securing the votes to do that!

No it wouldn’t. The Metromover flyovers are the coolest and most beautiful parts of Brickell and Downtown. It’s what makes Miami so different than every other part of Florida.

That’s dumb. Keep the beach serene. Run it down the middle of the island, there’s only some one or two floor buildings that will be replaced overtime, it’s inevitable given how they were built.

Why do we need to have elevated metro lines? Cities around the world have street trams and vehicles on the same level and sea level rise is not an excuse (Cities like Amsterdam, Signapore etc. have trams and subways). Creating elevated lines destroy any future growth and development. Look at the metromover’s underline businesses along Downtown and Brickell, they’re dead zones.

Fully agreed but metrorail should be prioritized as metro mover would be too slow for practical commutes. If you get on at Brickell it would take way too long to get to Wynwood considering the number of stops and how long the doors stay open on metro mover.

Azarius

Yes but having a direct link from the beach to Wynwood would make more sense of the system, just add a stop at 27/29th and Miami Ave, or even two since the area is so dense one at 20/21th too

How does it make sense? You didn’t address the OP’s point that it’s too slow, not to mention doesn’t offer sufficient capacity to be a feasible transit alternative to an automobile.

No metro mover is quieter and more futuristic. We need Metromover for inner city system and metro rail for outer suburb expansion

Vancouver uses the same driverless technology for it’s skytrain system that wasmostly build about the same time as Miami’s metromover in the early 80’s. However they are able to have to travel much faster then metromover. There’re no sharp turns like the metromover lines have here.. Mertomover at the MIA airport is faster too

There should be a stop at 79 Street.

The original plan was for a platform in El Portal, but the village protested. Then, the thought was 79th Street, but they couldn’t find the space. It sucks. As somebody who lives in the El Portal-Miami Shores area, I would love to have a nearby platform.

There is plenty of usable land between 61st and 79Th streets, 71st and NE 4th Ct. being the best area. A walking distance from my house.
Let Miami Shores and El Portal out of the equation, the low population density in those areas won’t justify the Invesment anyways.

Neither one of you clowns realize those are active freight line tracks that:

2) Metromover can’t run it’s little electrified-rail requiring tire rolling self on freight rail

I know it’s not NY’s MTA but these stations should be open 24 hours. Too many impaired people driving home from Wynwood/South Beach at 4am. What’s the point of having these stations close at 10:30pm if Miami is a 24/7 club city?

Mike

What does impairment have to do with these stations? Those patrons got themselves drunk, they can get themselves Ubers home. They’re not my nor the tax payers problem. & If they decide to drive while drinking, then a DUI and jail for them it is! It’s pretty simple, really.

Mike.. This is not a solution. They will go to jail great.. ok we need more funds for jails that are already full cause of thinking that police will magically will solve everything. In real life police never solves any issue since they come after something already happened. If this causes a wreck, traffic, injury, and deaths, it really doesn’t matter what punishment drunk drivers will get. It’s not going to stop even if it’s a life sentence. Impaired means kuku crazy not thinking rationally..

This is a commuter line not real rapid transit. Trains will only run once a hour and twice during rush hour. This will do little to nothing to help alleviate traffic in the northeast part of the county. We need an elevated metro line above these tracks with stops every mile or so with a 10 minute headway. Anything less than that will do nothing.

Let the cruise riders pay for private car services. That stimulates our economy more and keeps that money in the pocket of those drivers. We have bigger priorities than catering to out of town vacationers.

It would be best if this line was elevated. But perfect cannot be the enemy of good. This is much needed. Miami (including Broward) needs rapid transit in the form of rail, not buses. Do this from Dadelsnd to Florida City and from downtown to FIU main campus. Expand Metromover throughout brickell wynwood and design district. And finally put a metro station at the Marlins stadium.

This is a commuter rail not real rapid transit. We need an elevated metro line going above the tracks with stations every mile or so all the way to aventura with 10 minute headway. This current plan will only minimally help traffic in the northeast part of the county

Agree with you but not that this is not rapid transit. Commuter rail coming every 30 minutes during rush hour and hourly outside of that is not a very useful service. I wish more of us would call out Miami-Dade’s hypocrisy in how they are calling this a rapid transit service.

That Metromover (better known as the peoplemover) is designed to make frequent stops — Wynwood and Edgewater shld have at least 3 more stops before 40th St. I’d say put a stop at 17th, 20th, 29th, and 34th. I think the Midtown development shld be prioritized with Metromover stops over the Design District.
