District 4 Commissioner Ralph “Rafael” Rosado hosted a press conference to celebrate the City Commission’s approval of the Miami Loop Resolution and the launch of the S.A.V.E. Program. The Miami Loop will create a 223-mile trail system connecting neighborhoods, parks, and waterfronts across the city, while the S.A.V.E. Program offered 50% off permits for storm-proofing and sustainability upgrades like impact windows, reinforced roofs, solar panels, and energy-efficient improvements. #MiamiLoop #SAVEProgram #Sustainability #StormProofMiami #MiamiTrails #CityOfMiami @RosadoForMiami

My favorite part of the resolution is the reference to the #MiamiLoop trail system and how @PlanZforMiami fits into the larger whole, connecting with @theunderlinemia and @commodoretrail. See the big picture! cc: @railstotrails

The South Florida cycling community has been working with @MiamiDadeCounty for quite some time now to build a bike mobility network that connects @theunderlinemia, @Ludlam_Trail & the #CommodoreTrail with the #Rickenbacker cwy. #saferroads #visionzero #miamiloop

Agreed, let’s #ReviveTheRickenbacker and ensure a safer ped/bike connection is made between the @theunderlinemia AND #CommodoreTrail too. #miamiloop

Yep! Great trail. And it’s a western boundary of what will be the Miami Loop 📝 #MiamiLoop @railstotrails

No competition among these projects. No potential for "cannibalization of ridership." Underline and Comm Trail advocates support Plan Z, and vice-versa. All benefit from the success of others. All boats rise with the tide. All will be part of the #MiamiLoop. Each is necessary.

All ingredients are in place. We have amazing, transformative plans like @PlanZforMiami. We have investment and support of national groups like @railstotrails #MiamiLoop. And now have an admin who espouses support for bikes. There is no better time to change course. /END

Imagine if the biking resources caught up to the enthusiasm? Ridership would explode. If we build it, they will ride. How can we close this gap, and do it quickly? We must prioritize building the #MiamiLoop, and projects @theunderlinemia @commodoretrail @LudlamTrail & others.

Thank you, @iBikeSafe for your support! Let’s #MakeThisHappen, #Miami! We agree, the future is here and the time to act is NOW for @theunderlinemia @Ludlam_Trail @commodoretrail and @PlanZforMiami . #MiamiLoop @railstotrails

The Ludlam Trail is finally moving forward. But don’t saddle up for a ride just yet. (First, public mtg 11/19/2020) miamiherald.com/news/local/c… @AndresViglucci @MiamiDadeParks @DoverKohl @RebecaSosaMiami @XavierLSuarez1 @LudlamTrail @ActiveTowns @railstotrails #miamiloop

He also lives in a neighborhood in the city of Miami that is in our 1/2 mile impact zone. In the River Room, we experienced the powerful connection of The Underline and the Miami River Greenway and wondered how we could make people aware of this important #MiamiLoop connector.

@railstotrails and I were happy to support this TPO Resolution by Commr Suarez! The #CommodoreTrail is a vital #cycling, #running and #walking path and an essential link in the emerging #MiamiLoop. This Reso opens the door for state funding sources to improve the trail.

Half a decade of efforts to complete the #MiamiLoop! See attached letter from @MiamiBikeLawyer of @railstotrails which seeks to connect #LudlamTrail and #TheUnderline. This would complete southern half of Miami Loop connecting the Airport to Dadeland to Brickell @SierraClub

A proud moment for us both, @DawnShirreffs! Truly humbled for the opportunity to be in our nation's capital, supporting this important project that will help Miamians move around in healthier ways. #MiamiLoop @railstotrails @XavierLSuarez1 @MiamiFoundation @natakristine

Such a privilege to advocate in DC for #MiamiLoop and mobility today @MiamiFoundation @natakristine @HealthSFL @railstrails @XavierLSuarez1

Miami’s Underline snags a $22M grant. Now its new phase can be built in Coral Gables. miamiherald.com/news/busines… #EastCoastGreenway #parklife #cultureofactivity #nonmotorized @ActiveTowns @theunderlinemia #miamiloop @BikeWalkCG @bikesomi

This is a HUGE! @theunderlinemia is a critical part of the #miamiloop which comprises of @theunderlinemia @Ludlam_Trail and @PlanZforMiami. Thank you, U.S. Congressman @MarioDB! @MiamiDadeCounty residents who #run #walk #cycle outdoors are overjoyed. #Thankyou

Finally, this key piece of the #MiamiLoop is complete! Kudos to @MiamiBeachNews for completing the #AtlanticGreenwayTrail from South Pointe Park to 79th St! @railstotrails @miamidadetpo @CityManagerMB @MayorDanGelber @CommishEileen sun-sentinel.com/local/miami…
