7.25.14: The Port of Miami Tunnel to open on August 2014

By connecting SR A1A/MacArthur Causeway to Dodge Island, the project will provide direct access between the seaport and highways I-395 and I-95, create another entry to the Port of Miami besides the Port Bridge, and keep the Port of Miami, the community’s second largest economic generator, competitive.

The Port of Miami will improve traffic flow in downtown Miami by reducing the number of cargo trucks and cruise related vehicles on congested downtown streets, and will aid ongoing and future development in and around downtown Miami.
