About This Dataset
This dataset maps the exact routes of the Tri-Rail commuter train system that runs through Miami-Dade County and connects to Broward and Palm Beach counties. It shows where the train tracks are located and how they connect to Miami's MetroRail system, helping residents plan trips across the tri-county region and understand regional transit connectivity.
Why This Matters
- A commuter deciding whether Tri-Rail is a viable option for their daily work commute from West Palm Beach to Miami-Dade can view the exact route and see which stations serve their origin and destination.
- A city planner evaluating where to develop new residential or commercial projects can check proximity to Tri-Rail stations to understand how development will affect or benefit from transit access.
- A resident researching flood resilience or infrastructure planning can use the rail route data to understand critical transportation infrastructure in their area and how it might be affected by environmental changes.
