This video shows a computer-animated model of the future streetcar, with virtual images of streetcars sharing travel lanes with cars and using signal technology to improve traffic flow. It details the new route, which follows much of the historic streetcar line but completes loops around South Beach and downtown Miami and also includes new transit lanes on the MacArthur Causeway. The video was funded by the Metropolitan Planning Organization and produced by the engineering firm that conducted the BayLink study.
