Dear Honorable Mayor and City Commission:
On June 11th, the Transportation, Parking & Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities
Committee (TPBPFC) met and passed the below motions:
Via 10th ST Loop
Due to the low ridership to Belle Isle, the TPBPFC asks City to look into
proceeding with eliminating Routes A & B, keeping the Via 10th ST Loop to Belle
Isle
Beach Express North — Bus Express Rapid Transit (BERT)
The TPBPFC recommends that the first pilot program go across the Julia Tuttle
Causeway, make a stop at Mt. Sinai, go east on 41St to Collins Ave., go north to
44th and then south on Indian Creek; route should go as far as 23rd and Collins
41St/Alton
Discussion regarding the possibility of installing a turning lane when driving east
on 1-195 heading onto 41st and turning south on Alton, the TPBPFC asks that the
City leave this intersection alone
Venetian Island — Possibility of Placing a one (1) Foot Buffer Between Bicycle
and Traffic Lanes on Causeway
The TPBPFC asks that City send request to County to restripe lanes to ten (10)
feet, to allow for additional bicycle buffer where possible
As an advisory Committee, we would greatly appreciate your consideration on
the above motions.
Sincerely,
Transportation, Parking & Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities Committee
