About the Multi-use Trail Connectivity Project

Palmetto Bay was awarded $80,000 by the Miami-Dade County Transportation Planning Organization for the purpose of completing a Multi-Use Trail & SMART Plan Connectivity Feasibility Study. The study will consider multi-use pathways, sidewalks and/or protected or buffered bicycle lanes. Two alternatives will be evaluated for the above-mentioned roadways. The final plan will include 15% design plans for up to two corridors connecting Old Cutler Trail and the South Dade Trail. The project is anticipated to be completed by November 2021.

Before any determinations are made, we first want to hear from our residents to appropriately assess how, when and in what form our residents use or would best use the bicycle and pedestrian network. The survey will be used to assess the types of improvements and which two roadways the study will focus on.
