Public Works News and Info

Miami-Dade County Public Works provides a variety of infrastructure-related services to enable our community to function. Among these are the construction and maintenance of roads, bridges, sidewalks, street signs, pavement markings, traffic signals, street lights, and storm water drainage facilities that are used every day by the people of Miami-Dade County.

Use this site to find information on traffic signals and signs, the collection of tolls on both the Rickenbacker and Venetian Causeways and local and state mosquito control programs. Developers can obtain information on bonds, plat applications and Plat Committee results. Learn about the benefits of the People's Transportation Plan and how Public Works is involved.

Public Works is Keeping it NEAT

NEAT stands for Neighborhood Enhancement Action Teams -- and action is truly their middle name! Miami-Dade Public Works has ten NEAT teams patrolling County-maintained roadways, looking for things that need fixing. Broken signs, potholes, uneven sidewalks: you name it, they can usually take care of it right on the spot. See the results for yourself!

Miami-Dade County Public Works and the People's Transportation Plan

Since December 2005, Miami-Dade County Public Works has been working to implement its new, state-of-the-art Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS).  Funding for this new ATMS is being provided in part by $49-million from the People’s Transportation Plan (PTP) – the half-penny transportation surtax overwhelmingly approved by voters in November 2002.

Once fully implemented, the system will synchronize all 2,600 traffic signals in the County, increase the number of vehicles able to pass through the County’s major roadways, and reduce side-street delays.
