Did you know that Miami Tunnel is the first and only twin-bore tunnel in Florida? Since opening to the public in 2014, the tunnel has seen over 11 million trucks and cars pass through to PortMiami! Miami Tunnel was designed with high-quality safety regulations that our operations personnel uphold daily. Need direct access to and from PortMiami? We’ve got you covered! The tunnel provides a smooth roadway to and from the Port while being 100% toll-free. Built as a collaboration project between the Florida Department of Transportation, the Miami-Dade County Government, and the City of Miami Government, the aim was to create a more efficient transport route to the Port. In doing so, we’ve cut downtown Miami truck traffic by 80%, and we’re striving to meet further demand to decongest regional traffic. We have big plans for the future of transportation and look forward to the crucial regional conversations to make South Florida roadways the best in the nation! #MiamiTunnel #PortMiami #MiamiFlorida #TrafficFlow #TunnelVision #MiamiTransportation #EfficientTransportation #Collaboration #MiamiDadeCounty #FloridaDepartmentofTransportation #SustainableTransportation #CityOfMiami #InfrastructureDevelopment
