The Northern Broward County Transit-Supportive Infrastructure and Land Use Study will identify existing and future transit corridors and land uses, and provide opportunities for public involvement that focus on ways to improve transit services and transit-supportive infrastructure. The Study will address various transit options within the existing right-of-way including improved bus service (local, limited, rapid bus), corridor designs, transit-supportive infrastructure (shelters, sidewalks, bicycle facilities, ADA accessible transit shelters, crosswalks, streetscape, lighting, landscape, transit stations, potential park-and-ride facilities, neighborhood connections, etc.) to make it easier to walk, bike and use transit. The Study area covers approximately 35 square miles in northwest Broward County. Boundaries are Broward/Palm Beach County line to the north, the Conservation Levee to the west, Sample Road to the south, and the Florida’s Turnpike to the east.
