Roadway Construction/Closure Activities:
- Miami River Greenways; Project No. 20120029: The Project is composed of four (4) separate County parcels which will provide continuity to the Miami River Greenway Network within the boundaries of the City of Miami along the Miami River in Downtown Miami. This 25-foot wide pedestrian/bicycle shared-use riverwalk, featuring a minimum 16’ wide unobstructed concrete pathway, seawalls, drainage, lighting, landscaping, hardscape elements such as benches and trash receptacles. No mainline road closing foreseen, therefore no alternate route is necessary.
- Roadway Lane Reconfiguration on the Bear Cut Bridge; Project No. 20130011: Work under this contract include saw-cutting existing concrete barrier wall, furnish and install temporary concrete barrier system, removal of existing pavement marking, some new asphalt and re-striping. The reconfiguration of traffic lanes will open an additional lane to eastbound traffic. When completed, there will be two eastbound lanes open to all traffic, and two westbound lanes, one for all traffic and one for automobiles and motorcycles only. Additionally, in the interest of safety, bicyclists and pedestrians will be confined to the northernmost portion of the westbound side of the bridge. This project is being conducted in order to help traffic flow more smoothly until the Bear Cut Bridge can be repaired. The traffic lane reconfiguration work is scheduled to take place between 9:00 pm and 5:00 am seven days a week, and the project should be completed by March 1, 2013, weather permitting or other unforeseen circumstances.
