From the communities along the corridor to the members of the Project Advisory Team, everyone played a crucial role in forming the results and conclusions contained in this study. 2 STATE ROAD (SR) 5/US 1/DIXIE HIGHWAY FROM SR 94/SW 88 STREET/KENDALL DRIVE TO SR 9/I-95 This report compiles the results of the State Road (SR) 5/US 1/ Dixie Highway from SR 94/SW 88 Street/Kendall Drive to SR 9/I-95 Corridor Study and includes: › Findings from the study › Recommendations for walking, bicycling, driving, and transit access needs along US 1 between Kendall Drive and I-95 › Next steps for implementing the recommendations This effort is the product of collaboration between the Florida Department of Transportation District Six and its regional and local partners. FDOT and its partners engaged the community at two critical stages of the study – during the identification of issues and during the development of recommendations. The community input helped inform the recommended strategies but the collaboration cannot stop here. Going from planning to implementation will take additional coordination and, in some instances, additional analysis. FDOT is able and ready to lead the effort but will continue seeking the support of community leaders, transportation and planning organizations, and the general public!

REQUEST FROM PARTNERS BACKGROUND In March 2013, the Florida Department of US 1 is a critical corridor for north-south travel Transportation (FDOT) held their first Annual in Miami-Dade County. Through the Cities of Listening Session where transportation partner Miami, Coral Gables, and South Miami, as well agencies throughout the region were invited as the Village of Pinecrest, US 1 serves as the to share their opinions on transportation needs main link between residential communities along the State Highway System. During that and Miami’s urban core. In addition to serving Listening Session three themes emerged for as the main route for those traveling by car, US 1: (1) the existing level of congestion along it also serves as one of the region’s major the corridor is a primary issue, (2) there is transit routes with the South Dade Busway and a growing desire for better pedestrian and Metrorail running parallel to the roadway. It is bicycle access along and across US 1, and also anticipated that this corridor will become a (3) improving and expanding existing transit regional destination for pedestrians and cyclists service should be a high priority. In 2016 FDOT as the M-Path transforms into a world-class initiated this US 1 Corridor Study to holistically shared-use path, the Underline. assess transportation needs and develop and evaluate strategies to improve mobility for all Over 60,000 residents live and 100,000 users. employees work within one mile of the US 1 study area. By 2040, residents are projected to increase by 25%; and jobs are expected to increase by more than 33%. Employment today is particularly concentrated around Metrorail stops, and is especially dense in Dadeland, South Miami, Coral Gables, and Coconut Grove. Employment is expected to increase almost universally along the corridor, especially in areas such as The Falls, Dadeland, South Miami, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and with greater intensity towards Downtown Miami. 2013 LISTENING SESSION 2013 LISTENING SESSION 2013 LISTENING SESSION 8 STATE ROAD (SR) 5/US 1/DIXIE HIGHWAY FROM SR 94/SW 88 STREET/KENDALL DRIVE TO SR 9/I-95 B.

  • The Dixie Highway and US 41 & US
    The Dixie Highway And US 41 & US 41A Ralph Thompson Introduction The 20th Century history of Grundy County was heavily influenced by the Dixie Highway and its successors, US 41, US 41A and Interstate 24. To appreciate how these roads came about, it is important to appreciate the relationship of government to roads in the 1800s. Throughout the 1800s and in Tennessee up until the 1920s, most all roads were viewed as a local affair. As such, the roads were the responsibility of the individual counties and even the individual communities within a county. Tennessee required that each able- bodied man with a team (horses or mules) give 5 days per year to local roadwork. 1 The following provide excellent insight into how roads were maintained in Grundy County in the late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1897, as it had been for a number of years, the county was divided into districts and a “Road Commissioner” appointed for each district. James E. “Jim” Scruggs served District 4 - roads north of Beersheba Springs. This consisted in the Beersheba to McMinnville Road, which was divided into 3 sections: Hill’s Mill Road (Hill Road forming the northeastern county boundary.), Walker Road (Philadelphia Church to Northcutt’s Cove Road), Middle Point Road (Gross’s Cove to Beersheba), Grassy Ridge Road (Stone Door Gulf to Beersheba), and the Peak Mountain Road (Old Stage Road).2 Each of the above sections had an appointed overseer and a group of local men assigned to work the road. Each road section was provided with 5 to10 shovels and picks as the only tools for maintenance.

  • Build the 87Th Ave Bridge
    Build the 87th Ave Bridge Community Connectivity Committee: Paul Blake, Michelle Craven, Ileah Hoppner, Sandro Olivos It is with great pride that the Community Connectivity Committee (CCC) is able to whole heartedly recommend that the TPO to approve the building of the bridge project on SW 87th Avenue. The Community Connectivity Committee was created by Miami-Dade County Commissioner Danielle Cohen Higgins of District 8 to bring together the communities of Palmetto Bay and Cutler Bay to discuss the proposed bridge at 87th avenue. The members were appointed by their respective municipality’s mayors and the goal was to “engage in substantive, meaningful discussion in a respectful manner”. The CCC was originally comprised of 8 members 4 from each community; Palmetto Bay: Carmen Baker, AlJohn Farquharson, Joseph Miorelli, and Marcello Zinn; Cutler Bay: Paul Blake, Michelle Craven, Ileah Hoppner, Sandro Olivos. The committee was reconstituted after the second meeting due to Palmetto Bay Mayor Karyn Cunningham removing her members, citing her concerns over the decorum of the meetings and lack of support. The last two meetings of the CCC have been comprised of the 4 Cutler Bay residents. Our committee was able to speak with experts and get to the facts surrounding this controversial bridge. After hearing from these experts, we conclude that there is no other option for the connectivity in the area. The bridge must be built to provide traffic relief and bring safety to the residents in the area. Southwest 87th Ave is designated as an arterial road and this bridge has been part of the master plan to be a part of a complete grid in Miami Dade County since 1978.
