What is Metrorail?

Metrorail is Miami’s quick and easy 25-mile elevated transportation system to get you to all parts of the urban core of Miami from 5:00 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. Launched in the 1980s, this rail line is the hub for Miami’s inner city transit and an easy way to get around. To make traveling around town even more comfortable and efficient, check out the Metrorail’s schedule or download the GO Miami-Dade Transit app to plan your day.

How Can I Get to the Airport on Metrorail?

Need to get to the Miami International Airport (MIA)? There’s a special Metrorail Orange Line that runs specifically to the airport. The Orange Line connects to the Miami Intermodal Center, a local transportation hub that connects to MIA via the MIA Mover.

Where Else Will Metrorail Take Me?

From Downtown Miami and Brickell to Coconut Grove and South Miami as well as a quick trip to the airport, the Metrorail offers one easy ride to get you where you need to go. There are two distinct rail lines that depart from the Dadeland South station on US1. The Orange line ends at Miami International Airport and back. The Green line runs further up north with connections to the Tri-rail and Virgin MiamiCentral. There are stops along each route at many of Miami's hotspots such as Coconut Grove, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, Brickell, the Lyric Theater, Hialeah and more. There is also a Downtown Express line that leaves twice in the mornings and twice in the afternoons with select stops from Dadeland South to Government Center and back. Stops are about one mile apart and handicap accessible. Check out the Metrorail's station map to find out which line or stops to use, or visit Miami-Dade’s public transportation page for more details.
