This document discusses mobility trends and transportation planning in Miami-Dade County. It summarizes the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit (SMART) Plan, which proposes six rapid transit corridors connected by an over 90 mile express bus network. The Miami-Dade Transportation Planning Organization has endorsed the SMART Plan and passed resolutions to prioritize rapid transit projects and direct staff to determine funding and implement the plan. The plan involves developing vision documents for each corridor addressing land use, zoning, economic development, and stakeholder engagement to support a regional rapid transit network.
