November 23, 2020 888 Macarthur Causeway Miami, Fl 33132 Subject TRANSPORTATION AND PUBLIC WORKS Office of the Director Overtown Transit Village 701 N.W. 1st Court • 15th Floor miamidade.gov Miami, Florida 33136 Tel: 786-469-5675 Fax: 786-469-5587 November 23, 2020 Mr. Mert Oygut Via email: [email protected] Island Gardens Marina 888 MacArthur Causeway Miami, Fl 33132 Subject: Navigation Impacts to Island Gardens Marina Beach Corridor Rapid Transit Project – Bay Crossing CIP 153 Beach Corridor Phase III (SMART Plan) Miami-Dade County, Florida Dear Mr. Oygut: The Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) is in the process of acquiring environmental permits for the Beach Corridor Rapid Transit Project – Bay Crossing. The project is part of the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit (SMART) Plan and proposes premium rapid transit service from Miami to Miami Beach. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the proposed project and initiate discussion regarding impacts to the Island Gardens Marina during construction. The project consists of a separate, elevated transit guideway bridge approximately 10 to 15 feet south of the existing MacArthur Causeway west bridge over the Intracoastal Waterway. At the west bridge, 14 guideway bridge columns that align with the existing MacArthur Causeway bridge columns are proposed. Also, the fenders on the navigation channel will be extended southward to pass under the transit guideway bridge. There will be no impacts to the present available air draft as the clear vertical clearance from mean high water (MHW) to the bottom of the proposed bridge will meet US Coast Guard bridge criteria and, at a minimum, match the vertical clearances of the existing structure. Therefore, permanent adverse impacts to navigation are not anticipated. Plans for the area adjacent to the Island Gardens Marina are enclosed with this letter. As mentioned, the alignment runs parallel to the MacArthur Causeway west bridge north of the finger pier dedicated to small vessels and the north dock of the marina dedicated to larger vessels. Once constructed, the guideway will not impact the use of these docks or navigation to and from these areas. However, there will be impacts during construction. The north finger pier and the adjoining north end of the marginal dock will need to be removed to facilitate construction. A trestle bridge is proposed to be constructed south of the guideway to enable construction in this shallow, confined area and barges will need to access this trestle bridge. In addition, the berths on the north side of the north dock will need to be vacated during construction because they will not be accessible and the cranes using the trestle bridge may project over these berths. No other impacts to the north dock dedicated to larger vessels are anticipated. DTPW proposes to reconstruct the finger pier and northern portion of the marginal dock following construction in the same footprint and dimensions as the current condition. We also understand that there will be a need to compensate Island Gardens Marina for the loss of revenue from berths on the north side of the north dock during construction. We would like to present the project to you at your earliest convenience to obtain your comments and input regarding potential impacts during construction. We request that you review the attached plans and contact us to initiate this discussion. I can be reached via email at [email protected] or by phone at (786) 469-5245. We are looking forward to meeting with you and hearing your comments about the project.

The project is part of the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit (SMART) Plan and proposes premium rapid transit service from Miami to Miami Beach. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the proposed project and initiate discussion regarding impacts to the Miami Beach Marina during construction. The project consists of a separate, elevated transit guideway bridge approximately 25 feet south of the existing MacArthur Causeway east bridge over the Meloy Channel. At the east bridge, 16 guideway bridge columns that align with every other column on the existing MacArthur Causeway bridge are proposed. Also, the fenders on the navigation channel will be extended southward to pass under the transit guideway bridge. There will be no impacts to the present available air draft as the clear vertical clearance from mean high water (MHW) to the bottom of the proposed bridge will meet US Coast Guard bridge criteria and, at a minimum, match the vertical clearances of the existing structure. Therefore, permanent adverse impacts to navigation are not anticipated. Plans for the area adjacent to the Miami Beach Marina are enclosed with this letter. As mentioned, the alignment runs parallel to the MacArthur Causeway east bridge north of the present north dock and jet ski pad of Miami Beach Marina. Once constructed, the guideway will not impact the use of the north dock and jet ski pad or navigation to and from these areas. However, there will be impacts to these berths during construction. A trestle bridge is proposed to be constructed south of the guideway to facilitate construction in this shallow, confined area and barges will need to access this trestle bridge. Additionally, the cranes required for construction may project over the berths on the north side of the north pier. For several reasons, this would require these berths to be vacated during construction. We understand there will be a need to compensate the Miami Beach Marina for the loss of revenue from these berths during construction. We would like to present the project to you at your earliest convenience to obtain your comments and input regarding potential impacts during construction.
