Cypress Creek Mobility Hub

Project Description

The Cypress Creek Mobility Hub is the second largest commercial district in Broward County, and home to a Tri-Rail Station, Tri-Rail shuttles, Broward County Transit bus service, and easy access to I-95. The Broward MPO, in partnership with the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) who operate Tri-Rail, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), Broward County, City of Fort Lauderdale and City of Oakland Park are looking to identify infrastructure improvements and joint development opportunities in the area of the Cypress Creek Mobility Hub. The goal of this hub is to plan efficient transportation connections that will spur continued growth and development, enhance walkability, and promote the use of multiple modes of transportation within this Mobility Hub.

The Cypress Creek Mobility Hub Master Plan will identify privately funded development opportunities and infrastructure improvements within the mobility hub, including:

Development opportunities on publicly owned land
Improved access to the Tri-Rail station for all transportation modes
Enhanced pedestrian connections
Improved bus circulation and access
Improved connection to the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport
Evaluation of enhanced Broward County Transit, Tri-Rail Shuttle service, and Express Buses
Evaluation of public parking needs within the study area.
Evaluation of Complete Streets implementation within the study area.

Uptown Urban Village Project
The City of Fort Lauderdale’s Uptown Urban Village (Uptown) Project is a planning project derived from an August 2014 Urban Land Institute Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) report that identified strategies in creating a more livable urban village core for the Uptown area. Uptown is generally described as the area in and around the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, with the area’s core flanked by C-14 canal and McNab Road to the north, 57th Street to the south, Powerline Road to the west, and I-95 to the east. The overall intent is to establish a planning framework to guide future growth in the area by amending the current land use designations to a single land use designation that supports a mix of uses and multi-modal development. The project goals also include the development of a form-based code to regulate the built form consistent with the new underlying land use thereby making the area a multi-modal, walkable, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use, developed area.

Downtown Fort Lauderdale Mobility Hub

The Downtown Fort Lauderdale Mobility Hub is the first Hub that the Broward MPO, in partnership with the City of Fort Lauderdale, has funded for infrastructure improvements . This Mobility Hub is centrally located in downtown Fort Lauderdale which is an area actively redeveloping because of its close proximity to the downtown business district, government centers and access to transit.

On September 13, 2019, the City of Fort Lauderdale hosted the groundbreaking celebration that kickstarted construction of the $3.5 million project. Infrastructure improvements include sidewalks, bike lanes, lighting, drainage and landscaping, repaving and ADA improvements.

The purpose of the Downtown Mobility Hub is to create infrastructure that is supportive of mixed-use development/redevelopment and to seamlessly integrate different modes of transportation (walking, bicycling, transit and automobiles) that maximize first and last mile connectivity while being consistent with the City of Fort Lauderdale’s vision for the Downtown area. The Downtown Mobility Hub is a multi-block area that will connect various transportation choices including:

Regional express bus service
Local bus service to points throughout Broward County
Community shuttle bus connections
Brightline inter-city passenger rail between Downtown Miami and Orlando
Future commuter rail service

The Downtown Mobility Hub is open to the public!

Hollywood Boulevard/State Road 7 Mobility Hub

The Broward MPO has allocated $1 million dollars to advance the Hollywood Boulevard / State Road 7 (SR7) study recommendations into design and construction. The Hollywood Mobility Hub study was completed in January 2018. The recommendations include a combination of safety, transit, and pedestrian connectivity elements at the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and SR7 and the surrounding area.

The Hollywood Mobility Hub improvements will include bus shelters, pedestrian-scale lighting, pedestrian and bicycle connections to the neighborhoods, and other transit amenities. This project will complement other investments such as FDOT's roadway expansion along SR7 and the City of Hollywood's linear park north of the Mobility Hub location.

As of October 2020, our partners at the City of Hollywood have hired a design firm to work on this project. Project design is currently underway and construction is anticipated to start in the Summer of 2022.
