REIMBURSEMENT FOR DISCONTINUED I-95 EXPRESS ROUTES
Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners (BCC) is considering a resolution to authorize the use of $3,896,702.00 from the Charter County Transportation Surtax Bond Program. These funds will reimburse the Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) operating fund for a payment made to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The payment covers the depreciated value and unauthorized mileage associated with 15 diesel-powered buses originally purchased for the discontinued I-95 Express Bus Service routes (Routes 195/295 and 196/296). The buses were redeployed to other routes after the service was discontinued in March 2020 due to declining ridership and bus operator shortages. This redeployment was inconsistent with FDOT grant requirements. The reimbursement is part of a larger FDOT request of $9,658,133.83 for 28 buses. The project was added to the FY 2026-30 Five-Year Implementation Plan of the People’s Transportation Plan. The Transportation Committee forwarded the item to the BCC with a favorable recommendation. The Citizens' Independent Transportation Trust (CITT) review is required.

REIMBURSEMENT TO DTPW FOR THE PURCHASE OF 15 BUSES
This legislative item, File Number 260794, concerned a resolution authorizing the use of $3,896,702.00 from the Charter County Transportation Surtax Bond Program to reimburse the Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) operating fund. This reimbursement was for a payment made to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) regarding the depreciated value and unauthorized mileage of 15 buses originally purchased for the discontinued I-95 Express Bus Service routes. The buses were redeployed to other routes after the service was discontinued in March 2020 due to decreased ridership and operator shortages. FDOT required reimbursement because the redeployment violated grant terms. The item was introduced on 4/30/2026 and was withdrawn by the Transportation Committee on 6/9/2026. The project was added to the People’s Transportation Plan in July 2026. The total purchase cost for these 15 buses was $8,139,630, funded through FDOT Grant G0350 and approved by the Board via Resolution No. R-936-16. The total FDOT reimbursement request for 28 buses was $9,658,133.83, with this item addressing $3,896,702.00 for 15 buses under Grant G0350.
