Following the South Florida Commuter Rail Update presentation provided at the July 13, 2023 MPO Board meeting, the MPO's Executive Director requested staff to develop a presentation series on the different transit technologies proposed in Broward County's Premium Mobility (PREMO) plan, known as the Broward MPO Premium Transit Education Series. Broward County Transit's new system-wide PREMO transit plan will, over the next 10+ years, introduce new transit technologies and practices into the Broward region. This presentation series will outline the fundamentals of premium transit services and review best practices that facilitate their success.

The Leading Edge of Light Rail Transit (LRT), the second presentation in this series, provides an overview of LRT vehicles, stations, and operations, and explores new light rail technologies that are poised to make this mode of interurban transportation faster, safer, more attractive, and easier to maintain. 

For the PowerPoint presentation, please see the Attachment. MPO staff will address questions and comments at the meeting. 

MPO staff will continue the Premium Transit Education Series at the next MPO Board meeting with a discussion on High Frequency Bus Service.
