We understand how important mobility options and connectivity are in the urban core and throughout our City, and as a cyclist myself, I witness firsthand the need to improve safety, cycling lanes, street design and traffic.
On Northeast 5th Street, which is a major corridor and key route to the Port of Miami and the Fire Station, illegal parking in the bike lane has become a life threatening issue. When cars block the lane, it creates hazards for cyclists and pedestrians, and it contributes to congestion and gridlock for everyone. On weekends, cruise passengers carry their luggage across Biscayne Blvd to the Port. Miami Police have issued just under 100 citations in the past three months alone. Enforcement is not enough. We need structural changes. Our goal is simple

We look forward to continuing the conversation and working together on these projects that benefit residents, businesses, and all who use the area.
45We’ve received a lot of feedback on bike lanes in Downtown on NE 5th ST based on a story that ran on CBS. To be clear, we are not in favor of removing bike lanes. We are currently exploring how to make NE 5th ST safe for cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers while together moving traffic more safely and efficiently. Part of that effort involves redesigning the street and bike lanes to include elevating the lanes and/or changing the infrastructure. The urban core represents a cluster with the highest incidence of cyclist fatalities and serious injuries in Miami Dade. And Miami Dade ranks first among similarly sized cities in the State and in the nation.

I enjoyed a productive walkthrough along Flagler Street with the Miami Downtown Development Authority, the Chair of the DDA Board, District 4 and 2 leadership, and the Flagler BID. We discussed quality of life concerns, challenges facing local businesses, and opportunities to improve the corridor with more code enhancements and activations as work on the Flagler Street project continues.
We appreciate the collaboration and support from City administrative leadership in implementing all the improvements and charting a path forward for continued beautification and betterment. We look forward to continuing the conversation and working together on these projects that benefit residents, businesses, and all who use the area.
