Brightline announced their trains were back to normal operations after a Thursday morning suspension between Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

A malfunction that had the New River Bridge in Fort Lauderdale in the raised position halted everything south of Fort Lauderdale from just before 7 a.m. to about 10:30 a.m.

During that time, limited service remained between Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton and West Palm Beach.
