2016-29371 Reso RESOLUTION NO. 2016-29371
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH
TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN FINAL REPORT ATTACHED HERETO
AS EXHIBIT A.
WHEREAS, given the existing traffic congestion, the high number of special events, and
the limited capacity in the City of Miami Beach's ("City") transportation network, residents and
visitors have experienced an increased level of difficulty moving through the City; and
WHEREAS, the City has not adopted a Transportation Master Plan since 1999; and
WHEREAS, in 2014, the City engaged Gannett Fleming to develop a new City of Miami
Beach Transportation Master Plan; and
WHEREAS, Gannet Fleming evaluated existing conditions and collected data for transit,
traffic, and pedestrians throughout the City and developed a Transportation Master Plan Final
Report ("Transportation Master Plan") for the City which is attached hereto and incorporated
herein as Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, based on analytical contrasts of vehicular throughput and people
throughput, the Administration recommended, at the March 28, 2015 Commission
Transportation Workshop, a transportation mode hierarchy consisting of: (1) Pedestrians, (2)
Transit, Bicycles, Freight (depending on the corridor), and (3) Private Vehicles; and
WHEREAS, on July 8, 2015, the City Commission adopted the proposed modal
hierarchy as presented at the March 28, 2015 Commission Transportation Workshop; and
WHEREAS, the Transportation Master Plan developed by Gannet Fleming includes a
robust multi-modal Project Bank; and
WHEREAS, in December 2015, a second Commission Transportation Workshop was
held at which Gannet Fleming presented the proposed Transportation Master Plan which
includes a Project Bank and Policies; and
WHEREAS, the Project Bank is divided into three sections, denominated as Priorities in
the Transportation Master Plan, based on need, capacity benefits, connectivity benefits, safety
benefits, ease of implementation, modal split impact; and
WHEREAS, given the impact of future modal usage splits in the City, staff further
analyzed and prioritized the projects in Priority 1 on a year-by-year basis in a chart which is
attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B; and
WHEREAS, the projects identified in Priority 1, Priority 2, and Priority 3 are described in
pages 189 through 226 of the Transportation Master Plan; and
WHEREAS, the timeline of each project will be dependent on available funding identified
through the capital budget process each year, as well as staffing resources; and
WHEREAS, funding requirements for the Project Bank are estimated as follows:
Priority 1: $483 million (including $360 million for a Miami Beach Light Rail/Modern
Streetcar project in South Beach)
Priority 2: $86.5 million
Priority 3: $450.5 million (including expansion of Street Car/Light Rail transportation to
other areas of the City); and
WHEREAS, as part of establishing the target modal splits for the City, various analyses
were conducted by prioritizing different modes of transportation through various corridors which
revealed that many of the projects are projected to increase person-trip corridor capacity by as
much as 50% in some corridors; and
WHEREAS, the Transportation Master Plan identifies modifications to existing policies
and sets forth new policies to assist the implementation of the projects identified in the Project
Bank; and
WHEREAS, proposed new policies are identified in pages 141 through 149 of the
Transportation Master Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Administration recommends the adoption of the Transportation Master
Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DULY RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, that the Mayor and City
Commission hereby adopt the City of Miami Beach Transportation Master Plan Final Report
attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 13 day of I 4pri , 2016.

Supporting Data(Surveys, Environmental Scan,etc: N/A
Item Summary:
Transportation Master Planning is one of the key aspects to establish robust transportation infrastructure and programs.The City
of Miami Beach needs a robust long term plan to ensure comprehensive mobility addressing all modes of transportation.The City
completed its last Transportation Master Plan in 1999. In late 2014,the City of Miami Beach engaged Gannet Fleming, Inc.to
develop a Transportation Master Plan(TMP)for the City. On a parallel track,the City engaged Atkins Global Inc. and Street
Plans Collaborative to develop Miami Beach Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan(BPMP).Given the built out conditions and limited
right-of-way of the City, it was recognized that the plan needed to address multi-modal transportation and traffic operation
improvements in the City.
Based on the multi-modals needs identified by the TMP/BPMP Consultant Team, in March 28,2015,the City hosted the first
Commission Transportation Workshop to explain the findings of the data collection and existing conditions report. At the
workshop,both staff and consultants recommended a new modal hierarchy for the City.The findings were also shared with the
public at a Community Transportation Workshop hosted by the City on June 26, 2015. The proposed modal hierarchy was
adopted by City Commission via Resolution No.2015-29083 at the July 8,2015 meeting The adopted modal hierarchy consists
of the following elements: 1. Pedestrians;2.Transit; Bicycle; Freight(depending on the corridor);3. Private Vehicles.
In December 2015,the City hosted its second Commission Transportation Workshop.At the workshop,City Commission was
presented with the proposed Transportation Masterplan Project Bank and Policies.The same information was shared with the
public at the second Community Transportation Workshop hosted at the Miami Beach Golf Course in January 2016.
As the data in the TMP/BPMP shows that 25%of people on Miami Beach at any one time are riding,walking or taking transit.The
BPMP includes over 40 Miles of new and improved bikeways,crafted as a result of a three year planning effort that included
public workshops in May 2014, January 2015, and countless meetings and presentations with neighborhood residents,
homeowners associations, and transportation committees. Each category of projects builds on previous efforts and tries to
improve bicycle access incrementally with the goal of increasing bicycle mode-share. The projects identified in the BPMP have
been included in the broader project bank for the City's TMP. The TMP project bank is intended to provide a comprehensive
bank of projects and policies to guide multi-modal transportation improvements for the City over the next 20 years. However,it is
recommended that the project bank be reviewed and updated every 5 years,to reflect updated mobility data and demographics.
The projects in the Project Bank have been identified in three Priorities: Priority 1, Priority 2, and Priority 3. Criteria used to
identify priorities included need, capacity benefits, connectivity benefits, safety benefits,ease of implementation, modal split
impact.It is important to note that Priority 1 projects include existing initiatives that the City is working on as well as projects that
have the potential to be implemented within the next 5 years. However,it is important to note that the actual timing of projects will
be dependent on available funding as well as staffing resources. Funding requirements for the project bank are estimated as
follows:
Priority 1:$452 million(including$360 million for a Miami Beach Light Rail/Modern Streetcar project in South Beach).
Priority 2:$100 million
Priority 3:$468 million(including expansion of Light Rail/Modern Streetcar to other areas of the City)
Priority 1 projects are projected to increase person-trip corridor capacity by as much as 50%in some corridors.
The Miami Beach Street Design Guideline is intended to provide direction to engineers,city staff,and citizens in their ongoing
work to provide safer streets for Miami Beach residents and visitors,beyond the project bank in the TMP.The final draft TMP,
BPMP,and Street Design Guidelines documents were disseminated via Letter To Commission on April 5,2016 and available
online at the City of Miami Beach City Clerks Website(http://www.miamibeachfl.gov/cityclerk/scroll.aspx?id=85695)and the City
of Miami Beach Transportation Department Website(http://www.miamibeachfl.gov/transportation/).
Advisory Board Recommendation:The Master Plan was endorsed by the Transportation,Parking,Bicycle,Pedestrian Advisory
Committee.

BACKGROUND
Transportation Master Planning is one of the key aspects to establish robust transportation
infrastructure and programs. The City completed its last Transportation Master Plan in 1999 of
which 70% of the projects have been completed or are at different levels of development.
However, the fabric of transportation in our City has significantly changed since 1999 and a new
master plan is needed to address current and future mobility needs in the City. Given the highly
urbanized conditions and limited right-of-way of the City, it was recognized that the plan needed
9 p
to address multi-modal transportation and traffic operation improvements.
In late 2014, the City of Miami Beach engaged Gannet Fleming, Inc. to develop a Transportation
Master Plan (TMP) for the City. On a parallel track, the City engaged Atkins Global Inc. and
Street Plans Collaborative to develop Miami Beach Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan (BPMP).
Data collected through the TMP/BPMP development showed that 25% of people in Miami
Beach at any one time are riding, walking or taking transit, thus the need to address safety and
mobility for these methods of transportation. Together, the TMP and BPMP are intended to
provide a comprehensive bank of projects and policies to guide multi-modal transportation
improvements for the City over the next 20 years. However, it is recommended that the project
bank be reviewed and updated every 5 years, to reflect updated mobility trends and
demographics.
Based on the multi-modals needs identified by the TMP/BPMP Consultant Team, in March 28,
2015, the City hosted the first Commission Transportation Workshop to explain the findings of
the data collection and existing conditions report. At the workshop, both staff and consultants
recommended a new modal hierarchy for the City. The findings were also shared with the public
at a Community Transportation Workshop hosted by the City on June 26, 2015. The proposed
modal hierarchy was adopted by City Commission via Resolution No. 2015-29083 at the July 8,
2015 meeting. The adopted modal hierarchy consists of the following elements:

April 13, 2016
Page 2 of 3
1. Pedestrians
2. Transit, Bicycle, Freight (depending on the corridor)
3. Private Vehicles
The intent of the adopted modal hierarchy is to increase person through-put along City corridors
in the City and create streets that are safe and convenient for all modes of transportation.
Transportation Master Plan
Following the support from City Commission on the proposed modal hierarchy, as part of the
TMP and BPMP, each corridor in the City was evaluated for the appropriate mode to be
prioritized to maximize person throughput through the City, while, at the same time, providing
bicycle and pedestrian alternatives.
It is important to highlight that the projects in the Project Bank have been identified in three
Priorities: Priority 1, Priority 2, and Priority 3. Criteria used to identify priorities included need,
capacity benefits, connectivity benefits, safety benefits, ease of implementation, modal split
impact. It is important to note that Priority 1 projects include existing initiatives that the City is
working on are projects as well as projects that have the potential to be implemented within the
next 5 years. However, it is important to note that the actual timing of projects will be dependent
on available funding as well as staffing resources. Funding requirements for the project bank
are estimated as follows:
Priority 1: $452 million (including $360 million for a Miami Beach Light Rail/Modern Streetcar
project in South Beach).
Priority 2: $100 million
Priority 3: $468 million (including expansion of Light Rail/Modern Streetcar transportation to
other areas of the City).
Priority 1 projects are projected to increase person trip corridor capacity by as much as 50% in
some corridors. The Consultant Team identified a diverse number of projects in Traffic, Transit,
Bicycle, and Pedestrian improvements that would significantly benefit mobility, safety, and
modal splits of the City.
In December 2015, the City hosted its second Commission Transportation Workshop. At the
workshop, City Commission was presented with the proposed Transportation Masterplan
Project Bank and Policies. The same information was shared with the public at the second
Community Transportation Workshop hosted at the Miami Beach Golf Course in January 2016.
Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan
The BPMP includes over 40 miles of new and improved bikeways, developed as a result of a
three year planning effort that included public workshops in May 2014, January 2015, and
meetings and presentations with neighborhood residents, homeowners associations, and
transportation committees. The plan has been divided into three distinct categories of projects
that will provide for significantly improved bicycle safety and access, and addresses connectivity
neighborhood by neighborhood. Each category of projects builds on previous efforts and tries to
improve bicycle access incrementally with the goal of increasing bicycle mode-share, while
having a longer term view of improvements to the network as funding and conditions permit.
These projects have been incorporated into the overall TMP project bank described above.

Miami Beach Street Design Guidelines
The Miami Beach Street Design Guidelines is intended to provide direction to engineers, city
staff, and citizens in their ongoing work to provide safer streets for Miami Beach residents and
visitors, beyond the project bank in the TMP. Unlike previous street design standards, and
previous guidelines, this Street Design Guidelines offers city staff and residents with design
concepts and details that incorporate elements for walking, biking, traffic calming, and transit
use. The document details common configurations found in the various types of streets
proposed. In no way is this a comprehensive listing of techniques or designs, but rather this is a
starting point for engineers, designers and citizens as they formulate projects moving forward. It
is important to note that not all of the designs included herein have been adopted by the Florida
Department of Transportation. By adopting these designs, the City is making a statement about
its transportation values, and affirms its role as a leader in the region in reforming regional street
design standards in favor of bicyclists and pedestrians and transit.
Master Plan Coordination
Through the analysis process for both master plans, both teams met periodically as part of the
progress meetings to ensure that both master plans are cohesive and holistic with a vision of
advancing multi-modal transportation and increasing capacity through our roadways.
The final draft TMP, BPMP, and Street Design Guidelines documents were disseminated via
Letter To Commission on April 5, 2016 and available online at the City of Miami Beach City
Clerks Website (http://www.miamibeachfl.gov/cityclerk/scroll.aspx?id=85695) and the City of
Miami Beach Transportation Department Website (http://www.miamibeachfl.gov/transportation/).
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the City of Miami Beach Mayor and Commission adopt the
Miami Beach Transportation Master Plan, adopt the Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan Street-
Deegn Guidelines, and adopt the City of Miami Beach Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan.
