MOVE Roundtable
Miami, FL
The Miami-Dade County MOVE Roundtable focused on the question, “How can we help older adults use more transportation options?”
Multiple transit options and modes are available in Miami-Dade County (Metrorail, Metromover, Metrobus, Brightline, among others) but it isn’t always easy to navigate across these modes. Moreover, train and bus stops are not all user friendly – some do not have accessible sidewalks or shade.
With the high population of older adults and ongoing influx of new residents to the area, it’s important to identify and address barriers so that people can truly access the myriad options available to them.
The Roundtable focused ways to help older adults use more transportation options? Through our conversation series, we looked at a variety of system- and user- improvements that allow people to feel confident in choosing and using transit to get them where they want and need to go.
