Northeast Corridor

The Northeast Corridor is the Miami-Dade portion of the Coastal Link, which extends from Downtown Miami to the City of Aventura, along the existing Florida East Coast (FEC) railway tracks, approximately 13.5 miles.

The Department of Transportation and Public Works has scheduled a series of pop-up events along the project limits of the Northeast Corridor Rapid Transit Project. At the events, the project team will share project information with the community and will be available to receive comments and answer any questions. See the pop-up events schedule. 

The existing Tri-Rail system is the only regional commuter rail service operating in all three counties. In the Tri-County area, there is a large transit-dependent market with over 175,000 zero-car households and nearly twice as many low-income households living below the poverty line. 

The SMART Program represents a vision for our region that is both strategic and far-reaching, creating a system of multiple transportation options by leveraging existing infrastructure, and integrating technology at the highest levels. The program is comprehensive, proactive and supports the future population and employment growth.
