The Bridge Project in Palmetto Bay

An Update on What You Need to Know

A lot of people have been asking me recently about the potential bridging project in Palmetto Bay over SW 87^th Ave, between SW 164^th St and SW 163^rd Terrace.

To bring you up to speed: Miami Dade County’s Department of Transportation and Public Works had been proposing to build a bridge over the canal between SW 164^th and SW 163^rd to connect SW 87^th Avenue, thereby alleviating north-south traffic.

The county commission and the transportation planning organization held two separate meetings and as of Friday, January 21, 2022, both county entities declared an impasse on the resolution that was proposed by the villages. One more round of meditation will follow between Palmetto Bay & the TPO.
