Future Park & Ride Sites

Miami-Dade Transit (MDT) continues to plan and construct additional park and ride facilities designed to address parking demand from transit patrons throughout Miami-Dade County.

Park & Ride Sites Serving the Busway

SW 344 Street
MDT is planning to build an approximately 260-space Park & Ride facility with bus bays and shelters, located west of the southern end of the Busway between SW 344 Street (Palm Drive) and NW 2 Street and from NW 2 Avenue to NW 3 Avenue, in Florida City. The proposed Park & Ride received its Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact  from the Federal Transit Administration in April 2010. This facility has an anticipated summer 2012 opening.   

SW 168 Street 
MDT proposes to purchase an existing 1.68 acre Park & Ride facility with 149 spaces, located north of SW 168 Street and east of SW 97 Avenue, adjacent to the Busway.

Quail Roost Drive  
MDT proposes to purchase approximately 3.75 acres of vacant property (located between SW 184 Street and SW 186 Street) on which a Park & Ride lot would be constructed.  It is estimated that the lot would have approximately 200 parking spaces.

Park & Ride Sites Serving other bus routes

SW 127 Avenue / Kendall Drive 
MDT is planning to construct a Park & Ride lot on approximately 2.8 acres at the southeast corner of SW 88 Street (Kendall Drive) and SW 127 Avenue with about 180 spaces.

NW 186 Street / 73 Avenue 
MDT has completed the design for a Park & Ride facility with 124 parking spaces, on a 2 acre site located at the southwest quadrant of NW 186 Street and 73 Avenue.  Construction completion is expected by early 2011.

Douglas Road Metrorail Station  
MDT is planning to repair and restore the Park & Ride lot under the Metrorail guideway located just south of the Douglas Road Station. This lot, with approximately 50 spaces, is anticipated to open September 2010.

Dadeland South Metrorail Station (SW 88 Street and US1)
MDT is expanding the existing Park & Ride lot at Dadeland South Metrorail Station with an additional 93 parking spaces.  Construction completion is anticipated by the end of March 2010.

Other Facilities

Northeast Passenger Activities Center (NE-PAC)
The proposed NE-PAC is anticipated to be an enhanced bus hub that will connect circular, regional, and premium bus routes within the area.  This transit center will replace and / or supplement the existing bus terminal located near the Mall at 163 Street.  There are currently 15 bus routes that serve the existing bus terminal at the Mall at 163 Street.  This project has been deferred by two years; however, MDT is presently identifying potential sites and will begin design in 2013.
