The official Twitter feed for @MiamiDadeCounty's Department of Transportation & Public Works (DTPW). Follow @iRideMDT for Miami-Dade Transit service updates.
Behind every traffic signal is equipment that keeps it working. Our Traffic Signals and Signs team recently replaced a signal controller cabinet—one of the many ways our crews work behind the scenes to keep Miami-Dade moving safely.
Stay weather ready, Miami-Dade. Keep these safety tips in mind today:
• Never drive through flooded roadways. Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
• Allow extra time for your commute and use caution on wet roads.
• Keep drains and gutters clear of debris.
• Monitor weather updates and have multiple ways to receive alerts.
Attention Metromover riders: Plan ahead for a temporary service change on Saturday, October 10. All Metromover stations will remain closed until 2 p.m. while system upgrade work is underway. Free bus shuttle service will operate along all Metromover loops from 5:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
