New commuter rail in Northeast Miami-Dade would have up to five new platforms along Florida East Coast Industries’ line between downtown and an upcoming Aventura station but FECI’s Brightline won’t necessarily stop at any of them, a company executive says.
After local government committed five years ago to bringing Tri-Rail downtown, FECI Senior Vice President Jose Gonzalez also told Miami’s Downtown Development Authority board in a virtual meeting Friday that the service might roll into the city on FECI tracks by next year.
