Peak Travel Times
The heaviest periods of traffic congestion during Art Week Miami Beach are typically on weekday afternoons with congestion increasing closer to the weekend. Traffic congestion leaving Miami Beach can be exacerbated by incidents on major thoroughfares outside of the city, including I-395, I-195 and I-95. The Florida Department of Transportation’s ongoing road work and lane reductions near the Biscayne Boulevard off-ramp in Downtown Miami is expected to impede westbound traffic leaving Miami Beach along the MacArthur Causeway. A citywide construction moratorium will suspend all construction-related activities within the public right of way throughout the week — prohibiting road, sidewalk and lane closures. To reduce congestion along the Venetian Causeway connecting Downtown Miami and Miami Beach, the east Venetian Causeway bridge will be on lock-down and will not open to vessels from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. from November 29 to December 3, except emergency vessels and tug/tows.
The city plans to implement special event signal timing changes and other traffic mitigation measures along all major thoroughfares with an enhanced level of traffic monitoring for Art Week Miami Beach. This will include 14 hours of traffic monitoring each day and coordination with the Miami Beach Police Department to enforce traffic regulations at intersections while keeping motorists informed of delays through digital message signs. The city will proactively communicate with Waze, Google, and Inrix to accurately reflect all street closures on their respective mobile platforms in real-time.
In addition, the city will issue traffic text alerts as warranted to notify the public of major roadway incidents. Subscribe to receive traffic text message alerts by texting MBAlert to 888777. City staff will work closely with the FDOT SunGuide Traffic Management Center to program traffic messages on overhead digital message signs along I-95, SR 112/I-195 and SR 836/I-395 regarding any major incidents on Miami Beach causeways.

Drawbridges
Due to the increase of traffic expected during Art Week Miami Beach, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the United States Coast Guard have authorized the City of Miami Beach to temporarily deviate from regular drawbridge operations on the eastern portion of the Venetian Causeway.
During this time, the East Venetian Causeway Bridge will remain closed between the hours of 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. daily, from November 29 - December 3, 2022.
Public vessels of the United States and vessels in distress will be allowed to pass at any time.
For more information regarding this temporary regulation, please contact USCG Sector Miami Waterways Division Chief, LT Benjamin Adrien at 305.535.4307 or email Benjamin.D.Adrien@uscg.mil.
