How about lowering the toll plaza fees (which have not built a dade county road in decades)

I remember my State Rep when I lived in Miami back in the late '90s told me that the road infrastructure as it stood was built to accomodate a population of about 1.5 million, instead of the 2.3 million who lived in Miami-Dade County at the time.

Public transport is simply not a solution in South Florida, as the area is a sprawling, overdeveloped mess. I was lucky in that I only had a 10 minute commute from my apartment to work at the time (both were in the Doral area).

They think agrivation will push people onto UNSAFE AND UNSECURED light rail and trains. Hmmmm sitting next to a smelly stranger stuck in traffic Orrrrr stuck in traffic in my own vehicle eating in comfort.
