SFRTA, Miami-Dade Transit Open Station at Airport
The South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) in Pompano Beach, operator of Tri-Rail commuter rail, joined Miami-Dade Transit (MDT) April 9 in conjunction with Stand Up 4 Transportation Day, at the opening of the Miami Airport Station, part of the Miami Central Station at the Miami Intermodal Center (MIC). The station opened to passengers a few days earlier.
MIC also provides service to MDT’s Metrorail and Metrobus service and ultimately will connect with Greyhound intercity bus and Amtrak intercity rail. It also serves the MIA Mover, which transports passengers to the airport.
SFRTA Chair Bruno Barriero called the opening “another significant milestone, which is symbolic of our vital role to connect South Florida to the world.” He added, “Our loyal passengers, plus the thousands of new riders that we anticipate to travel in and out of Miami International Airport, will greatly enjoy this state-of-the art facility that we expect will become an international transit hub of which we can all be proud.”
