Miami drivers have a new ramp to enter I-95. See how to find it
Drivers heading from Miami Beach to Miami will soon have a new ramp for a smoother commute. The link from westbound I-395 to southbound I-95 is part of a major roadway reconstruction. The project’s community outreach specialist, Oscar Gonzalez, says the new ramp will “improve traffic flow,” letting drivers avoid congestion and reach their destination faster. The new ramp debuts Thursday — although the Florida Department of Transportation says the opening depends on the weather. The overall $866 million project, expected to finish in late 2029, aims to reduce congestion on Interstate 395, the Dolphin Expressway, and I-95 with repaved roadways and new lanes. MORE: Miami’s downtown bridge project is delayed — again. Why is it taking so long? With the new ramp, Gonzalez said drivers will have one more lane going to southbound I-95, and also won’t have to merge at the interchange to go south. The ramp also starts about 500 feet sooner than the previous one. Drivers will exit using the left lanes, while the two center lanes continue to the westbound Dolphin Expressway, and the right lane heads to northbound I-95. New overhead signs have been posted to guide drivers, and they “are encouraged to watch

Railroad Crossing Gate Issues Causing Problems In Boca Raton
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Gate issues at several railroad crossings in Boca Raton late Wednesday continue to cause problems for the evening rush. Boca Raton Police alerted earlier this afternoon that there were issues at the FEC tracks in multiple locations. But those issues were supposed to be resolved well before 6 p.m. Apparently, they’re not. The locations are identified as: Glades and North Dixie. Dixie and Palmetto. Dixie at NW 2nd Street. And Dixie at NW 20th Street. BocaNewsNow.com continues to receive multiple calls, tips, texts, and emails from frustrated motorists. We hear you! The good news: the crossings are not closed because of a crash or other major incident. The gates are (or were) not working. It’s that simple. The bad news: even though authorities say traffic should be clearing by now, clearly traffic is not.

No sidewalk riding: Miami passes new e-bike, scooter rules.
The city of Miami is cracking down on e-bikes and motorized scooters, setting new speed limits, age minimums and sidewalk rules. Why it matters: Miami is the latest city in Miami-Dade County to regulate motorized micromobility vehicles, including e-bikes and scooters, due to pedestrian safety concerns. In 2024, Key Biscayne banned micromobility devices following the death of a pedestrian. In the past year, Miami Beach , Doral and Sunny Isles Beach passed their own rules governing helmet use, age minimums and sidewalk riding. This summer , the University of Miami also banned e-bikes and e-scooters from its Coral Gables campus. The latest: Miami commissioners approved new rules Oct. 22 that ban riders younger than 16 years old, prohibit riding on sidewalks except when parking and set a 20-mph speed limit ( Some e-bikes go as fast as 28 mph). Riders can't park on sidewalks except in designated areas and must carry ID. Violators could face a $100 fine. Miami Police Chief Edwin Lopez says officers will try educating the public first, but will turn to fines as a "last resort" if needed, according to Local 10 . Yes, but: Cities need Miami-Dade approval to restrict e-bikes and scooters on county-owned
