SUBJECT: MIAMI BEACH TROLLEY AND MIA`, I-DADE TRANSIT CIRCULATOR RIDERSHIP
REPORT (FY2016— 2ND QUARTER)
The purpose of this Letter to Commission is to report ridership figures for the City of Miami Beach Trolley
System and Miami-Dade Transit (MDT) Circulators during the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2016, from
January 1 to March 31, 2016.
As illustrated in the attached ridership report (Attachment A), the North Beach Loop observed an average
daily ridership of 2,382 passengers during this quarter. This represents an approximate 7.7% increase in
ridership over the previous quarter. The overall ridership of the North Beach Loop service during the
second quarter of Fiscal Year 2015/16 was 214,370 passengers. It is important to note that this service
started operation on October 29, 2014. The temporary Alton-West Loop also observed an increase in
ridership of approximately 13.8% over the previous quarter. The overall ridership of the Alton-West Loop
during the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2015/16 was 105,607 passengers.
The City of Miami Beach trolley system provided transit service to a total of 319,977 passengers during
the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2015/16 and cumulatively to over 1.8 million passengers from inception
to the end of the second quarter Fiscal Year 2015/16.
In addition to the City's trolley system, MDT operates two (2) circulator routes entirely within City
boundaries (the South Beach Local (SBL) and Route 115/117). This quarter's daily average ridership for
the SBL and Route 115/117, were 2,467 and 484, respectively (Attachment A). These figures were based
solely on the months of January and February, as ridership totals for the month of March has not yet been
published by MDT. The MDT circulator ridership figures for this quarter will be included in the next
quarterly ridership report and issued via LTC. Based on the available MDT circulators' ridership data for
Fiscal Year 2015/16, the County transit service has experienced a 20.5% decrease in ridership with
respect to the previous Fiscal Year.
Additional ridership information for both the City's trolley system and the County's SBL and Route
115/117 for previous Fiscal Years has been included in Attachment B for reference.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
