What is Metrorail?

Metrorail is Miami’s quick and easy 25-mile elevated transportation system to gets you to all parts of the urban core of Miami from 5:00 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. Launched in the 80s, this rail line is the hub for all inner city transit and an easy way to get around. With new trains going online continuously, Miami expects to replace the entire Metrorail fleet with new and updated cars by 2019 to make traveling around town even more comfortable and efficient.
