Planning S tudy NW 74 th S S R 934/ tre e t S I S Co nne c to r/ NHS Co nne c to r  The SR 934/NW 74 th Street Planning Study includes both a Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) Connector and a National Highway System (NHS) Connector.  The subject SIS Connector is comprised of the following roadways: SR 934 from SR 826 to Milam Dairy Road. • Milam Dairy Road from SR 934 to NW 74 th • Street. NW 74 th Street from Milam Dairy Road to • NW 69 th Avenue. NW 69 th Avenue from NW 74 th Street to • 0.060 miles south of NW 74 th Street.  The subject NHS Connector includes the same limits as the SIS Connector, and also includes: NW 74 th Street from NW 69 th Avenue to • Okeechobee Road – Including Bridge #874095. 2

  3. Planning S tudy NW 74 th S S R 934/ tre e t S I S Co nne c to r/ NHS Co nne c to r Study Area Study Area  The study area for this project encompasses the roadways that feed into the SIS and NHS Connectors to the FEC Hialeah Rail ‐ Yard. The study area is generally north of NW 58 th Street, east of SR 826/Palmetto Expressway, and west of US 27/SR 25/Okeechobee Road.  Portions of the Connectors are located within the limits of the Town of Medley. The remaining portions of the Connectors are located within Unincorporated Miami ‐ Dade County. 3

Planning S tudy NW 74 th S S R 934/ tre e t S I S Co nne c to r/ NHS Co nne c to r Project Objectives Project Objectives  Analyze the NW 74 th Street SIS/NHS Connector and its surrounding area to improve freight mobility and intermodalism.  Identification of immediate project needs and future project needs. Operational, capacity, access and safety improvements. • Identification of short term improvements. • Partial long term improvements. • Improve other roadways within the study area that are part of the local freight network. •  Position the region for funding opportunities.  Prepare for the inevitable growth of the freight industry due to the Panama Canal expansion. 4

(Existing and future)  Analyze the existing roadway and intersection conditions.  Identify the origin and destination of trucks accessing the Hialeah Rail ‐ Yard. (Existing and future)  Identify problem areas for truck movements.  Forecast future traffic/truck volumes.  Future conditions analysis: forecasted traffic vs. projected freight traffic and 5 currently planned roadway network.
