What's Happening
The West Avenue Phase II project continues to advance, with several key milestones reached and new construction activities beginning across the corridor. Below is a summary of recent progress, upcoming work, and coordination efforts that may affect travel, utilities, and private property connections.

Sanitary sewer installation on 16 Street will continue over the next couple of weeks. The sewer pipe installation is proceeding in phases, and each phase includes multiple private property connections. The project team will notify affected properties as schedules and impacts are confirmed.

The City of Miami Beach and the project team continue to work with DERM (Miami-Dade County’s environmental regulatory agency) to address these concerns, coordination is ongoing. Updates will be shared as more information becomes available.
