Combining context-sensitive designs, pre-fabrication, advanced technology and future-proofing, Miami-Dade’s first Bus Rapid Transit project is rolling toward completion despite pandemic- and fiber optic cable-related hurdles. The 20-mile South Dade TransitWay will cut travel times by as much as 30 minutes and increase efficiency along a busy and rapidly growing corridor south of Miami.
OHLA USA has been leading the design-build project since April 2020, when Miami-Dade County awarded the more than $368-million project to the firm for the construction of 14 bus stations—one of which is a a five-level, roughly 645-space park-and-ride garage—rehabilitation of 32 bus stops and improvements to 46 intersections.
