The traffic has increased so much since we bought our home ( in what we thought was a quite 1/2 acre plus homesites only). The bridge would only make the streets unbearable. This should have been thought about before building all the high rise apts. NO BRIDGE

Commissioner Danielle, stop thinking like an ASS and pull your head out of it. You do not have the authority to squander residents hard earned money . If you have the money, then use it.

As an architect who has studied transportation engineering and city planning, I believe that the bridge will not alleviate our traffic issues. 87th Ave. was not designed as a major arterial way and travelers reaching 144th St. still will have to choose either US one or old Cutler to continue north, since 87th Ave. is not a contiguous roadway and dead ends into another canal at 141st Street. Additionally, the increased traffic in 87th Avenue will create a barrier dividing Palmetto Bay neighborhoods and impede parents’ ability to deliver their children to local schools, to which they previously walked or bicycled.

Don't make a mini-US1 through our residential neighborhood. Extend MetroRail to Homestead alongside US1.

I strongly oppose the construction of a bridge at 87th avenue and SW 164th street.

I oppose the 87th Ave bridge. Traffic will increase on an already busy 141st ST. My kids will be dodging even more cars as they ride their bicycles in the neighborhood.

This bridge is not going to help anything. If the bridge is built, where will the traffic go? US1 (overloaded), 82 overloaded or 77th overloaded. If you take a trip down south by Gould, Princeton, Homestead and Florida City you will see more apartments/condos/townhouses being built. They need a more comprehensive solution then foisting this bridge on us.

The Cetta family is opposed to the proposed bridging project. This matters needs further study and analysis. There is no rush needed as so many people are working from home with the pandemic.

The bridge will add zero value and detract from nature and peace for those who purchased a home purposefully on the north side of 168.

This will dump everyone right to my quiet street 141 and 87th ave. Property values will plummet and that is not fair. The people in Cutler Bay paid less for their homes because of the distance and traffic. It is not fair to transfer this to us who paid more to be in this neighborhood
