Ludlam Trail Corridor PD&E Study

What is a PD&E Study?

Miami-Dade County Parks Recreation and Open Spaces completed the PD&E Study to determine the location and conceptual design of the Trail and the associated social, economic and environmental effects of the Trail on surrounding communities. Public involvement is an extremely important part of a PD&E Study. The goal of a public involvement program is to inform citizens about the project and provide interested persons an opportunity to be involved in the project’s development.

Public Hearings

August 17

On Monday, Aug. 17, Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces brought together project stakeholders for an update on the Ludlam Trail as this long-awaited project moves into its next phase.

The 5.6-mile shared-use corridor is envisioned to connect neighborhoods, parks, schools, transit and destinations across central Miami-Dade, creating new opportunities for walking, biking, running and recreation.

With planning, land acquisition and environmental review complete, design of the full trail is now underway, with construction planned to advance in phases as funding becomes available.

Community engagement will continue throughout the design and implementation process, providing additional opportunities to help shape the future of the Ludlam Trail.
