Hitting the highway in South Florida? So is President Biden, so get ready for traffic
If you’re planning to drive in eastern Broward and northern Miami-Dade Tuesday afternoon and evening, you may face some delays on the road.
President Joe Biden is visiting South Florida to deliver remarks about protecting Social Security and Medicare and to campaign with state Democrats, including gubernatorial nominee Charlie Crist and U.S. Senate nominee Val Demings.
The president is expected to land in Fort Lauderdale around 2 p.m. Tuesday. He will then make his way to Hallandale Beach at 3 p.m., Golden Beach at 4:45 p.m. and Miami Gardens at 7 p.m.
That means police will block lanes in rolling closures as the president’s motorcade travels on the highway and on city roads.
