Go Miami
Miami-Dade County's new transportation portal is being launched tomorrow. Go.MiamiDade.gov gives you all the transportation information available from one page. Check flight arrivals/departures at Miami International Airport, or find out where to go for baggage or check out a map of stores and restaurants in the terminals. Find bus and Metrorail schedules, get highway traffic updates, or find out about Tri-Rail. Look for shipping information such as cruise ship schedules, cargo ship arrivals/departures, and travel tips. There's also Accessible Services information. Or, for the complete package, use the Trip Planner to navigate your way around the county using public transportation. In addition, the page will soon add a planner that can find routes and systems throughout Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. posted by liz at 10:56 AM
