Big upgrades are coming to Metromover. But for now, hours are being shortened
Miami-Dade County’s Metromover is cutting its operating hours to make technical improvements required by a 2022 project.
The train, which normally runs daily from 5 a.m. till midnight, will begin service at 5:30 a.m. and close at 10 p.m. starting June 1 “until further notice,” according to a county press release. The two-and-half-hour adjustment is meant to expedite the project and upgrade safety and reliability, according to the report.
The Metromover Upgrade Project aims to increase Metromover frequency to reduce wait times and prepare the Metromover for future expansion.
The Metromover, which has been running for almost 40 years, is free and serves major neighborhoods like downtown Miami and Brickell.
“[The Department of Transportation and Public Works] is taking an aggressive approach to replacing and repairing these subsystems to ensure reliability, safety and accessibility for many years to come,” the news release states.
