In Aventura, a Brightline station is moving closer to completion, photos show.
According to a report to investors issued by Brightline last week, the Aventura station is on track for completion in Fall 2022.
Passenger escalators have now been installed inside the new station, with elevators expected to be delivered in July.
Finishes including tiling, lighting, window frames and much of the glass will be installed in the coming weeks, Brightline said.
Structural work for a vertical transportation tower, which will allow passengers to go from the station to the bridge level, is largely complete.
A concrete pour for the northern platform has been completed, and installation of canopies at the platform is now underway.
Brightline has already completed construction of the two mainline track shifts that were needed to make room for the station platform construction. They also completed 95% of the necessary fiber relocations at the site.
A pedestrian bridge crossing Biscayne Boulevard to the Aventura Mall property is planned but not yet under construction.
Travel time for express trains from Aventura to downtown Miami will be 15 minutes. A regional rail service with more stops is also planned.
