Commuting In Miami Florida

Miami loves its cars. In certain areas it's possible to have a car-free lifestyle, but mostly people opt to drive and the highways are quite congested during rush hours.

That being said, there are quite a few options for public transit in the city of Miami and its surrounding areas. There is an extensive bus system connects most of Miami-Dade county, while the downtown neighborhoods are easily navigable by Metrorail and Metromover. Tri-Rail also runs north-south through Miami's suburbs. The main problem with public transit at this time is that it doesn't extend to all neighborhoods. There are many proposed additions to the Metrorail lines that will greatly improve the system, but those will take several years to complete.
