Updates
Since 2010, the study team has worked with its partner agencies, Broward County Transit, the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority, and the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization, to redefine the alternatives for this study.
As a result, the alternatives to be considered by the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in Spring 2012 are:
|
|
|
| SR 7/Broward Boulevard |
| This alternative proposes improved bus service from the Sawgrass Mills Mall/Bank Atlantic Center area east to the Fort Lauderdale Tri-Rail Station on Broward Boulevard. Between the Fort Lauderdale Tri-Rail Station, Downtown Fort Lauderdale, the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport, and the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport Tri-Rail Station, the proposed service would be provided by rail vehicle, such as modern streetcar. |
 |
|
|
|
|
| Griffin Road |
This new alternative provides a different route into the Airport and Downtown, using Griffin Road instead of SR 7 and Broward Boulevard. This alternative proposes improved bus service from the Sawgrass Mills Mall/Bank Atlantic Center area to the South Florida Education Center. At this point, the study will analyze the use of two different vehicles, bus and rail, to provide the continuing service to the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport Tri-Rail Station.
The continuing service to the Airport, Downtown Fort Lauderdale, and up to the Fort Lauderdale Tri-Rail Station is proposed to be via rail, such as modern streetcar. |
