Overview

In coordination with multiple partners, the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) extended Tri-Rail commuter rail service to provide new direct service from Tri-Rail's northernmost station at Mangonia Park in Palm Beach County to its southernmost station in Miami Dade County, at the "MiamiCentral Station" in Downtown Miami.  The 9.05-mile extension, known as Tri-Rail Downtown Miami Link (TRDML), will provide a new one-seat ride passenger service link from the South Florida Rail Corridor (SFRC) at Tri-Rail Metrorail Transfer Station to the Florida East Coast (FEC) railway corridor, into Downtown Miami.  The Miami DDA contributed $1.3 million towards the completion of the Downtown link.
