MIA's Elevated Rail Line is Tops in Transportation, Safety
A rail system project at Miami International Airport earned dual Best Projects honors, winning the the Southeast's top transportation project award as well as the top safety award.
The MIA Automated People Mover System is a 1.27-mile-long elevated system that connects a new station serving all of the airport's terminals to an intermodal center, which houses rental car facilities and transfers to other forms of transportation. The APM's guideway was built atop a system of auger-cast and drilled shaft foundations supporting conventional reinforced concrete hammerhead piers and standard bulb-tee beams.
