All Aboard Florida Presentation to the City Commission (5/6/14)


Kim Delaney, planner, gives a presentation to the City Commission about the review process for All Aboard Florida. It's really everything you ever wanted to know about the project. For the current status and review of many related documents, click here for a link to the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council (TCRPC) website. She is with this governmental agency that is acting as a clearinghouse for information on the project.

All Aboard Florida is the fast train that will have stops in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Orlando. Ms. Delaney answers questions from the Commission and also talks about the Tri-Rail Coastal Link, freight traffic and how this all fits together with our region's future. Remember that All Aboard Florida is is a private venture and is only going through this process since it is asking for a loan from the Federal Railway Administration. You can see the various links of the TCRPC website.
