SR 836 / I-395 / I-95 Reconstruction Design-Build
Miami-Dade County, Florida
The I-395/SR 836/I-95 Design-Build Project is a reconstruction project that improves capacity and safety in three of Miami-Dade’s highways, SR 836, I-95, and I-395. This project boasts a double-decker over the SR 836 and Miami River, new lanes on I-95, a new Signature Bridge on I-395 over Biscayne Boulevard, and a 55-acre Heritage Trail underneath I-395 which will forever connect Downtown Miami and will revitalize the Overtown community.
We are working closely together with the Archer Western – de Moya Group JV Team to manage and oversee all design elements throughout the three corridors for this $838 million construction effort. Our staff will additionally be responsible for the maintenance of traffic on all corridors and Structures work throughout the project.
The improvements along SR 836 begin west of NW 17th Ave. and end at the I-95 interchange. A new double-decker bridge will be erected over SR 836 that will begin near NW 17th Ave., by the Marlins Stadium, and continue east to MacArthur Causeway bypassing I-95 providing a direct connection to Miami Beach and Downtown Miami, dramatically improving traffic flow! The double-decker bridge will provide spectacular views of Miami including the skyline as you cross the Miami River over 100 feet above ground. The project includes a spectacular 1,025-feet iconic Signature Bridge that will span over Biscayne Boulevard and features six arches springing from one central arch thrust block – a first for bridge design. The tallest arch reaches 330 feet in height. The bridge deck is suspended by steel cables that traffic will drive through as they arrive or depart Miami Beach.
The 395 project is a transformative and extraordinary infrastructure project that will make history, while improving mobility and safety.
