Freebee Metrorail Shuttle to Launch September 19

New, Earlier Time for Ribbon Cutting

Palmetto Bay's new and popular Freebee program is expanding. Beginning September 19th, you can hop on a "Freebee" van to take you to the Dadeland South Metrorail station from Palmetto Bay Park, FREE. Two vans will be making both morning and evening scheduled runs. This Park & Ride program is
in addition to
the existing IBus shuttle program that departs from Holy Rosary-St. Richard's Church. Our other two Freebee vehicles will continue to offer free on-demand rides throughout the Village (download the "ride freebee" app, flag one down, or call for a ride at 305-397-5002).
We are the only municipality in Miami-Dade County allowed access to the bus transitway for our Park n' Ride programs. This provides a faster way to get to and from Metrorail. To welcome this new Freebee Shuttle system to the Village, please join us for a ribbon-cutting at Palmetto Bay Park on September 19th at 10:00 am. See you there!

Please join us as we discuss the scope of a
Joint Use Agreement between the Miami-Dade School Board and Palmetto Bay.
What's it all about? Under a board-approved agreement, designated Village park sites and designated MDCPS sites (Howard Drive Elementary School and Coral Reef Elementary School), will be made available for use by each for recreational and educational purposes.
