Many cities in the county run their own “trolley” services, which offer small buses, free fares, but often routes that duplicate what the countywide Miami-Dade Transit network does. They are handling all of the public outreach and government relations, leaving us to just do the planning behind the scenes. These folks brokered a deal where they would manage a study on behalf of both Miami-Dade Transit and several of the key cities. Most remarkably, the project is led not by the transit agency, but by a well-resourced and well-respected advocacy group, the Transit Alliance. We’ve worked on a lot of bus network redesigns, but the Miami-Dade Better Bus Project is unusual in a number of interesting ways. The report reviews existing services, identifies possible paths for improvement, and also points to difficult choices that policymakers need to think about. We’re delighted to announce the release of our analysis of the bus network of Miami-Dade County, the Better Bus Project Choices Report.
