Subject: Resolution authorizing a street closure barricade on SW 27 Lane just east of SW 26 Ave., restricting
vehicular traffic.
Purpose of Item:
Resolution of the Miami City Commission authorizing a complete street closure barricade on SW 27 Lane just
east of SW 26 Ave., pursuant to Exhibit A attached.
Background Information:
Pursuant to R-91-376, the City Commission approved restricting a portion of SW 27 Lane, just east of SW 26
Ave., to allow only one-way west bound traffic. A group of North Coconut Grove property owners requested
that the City completely prohibit vehicular access to the portion of SW 27 Lane, due to violation of the one-way
street designation. CIP conducted a Street Closure Study to evaluate the traffic conditions along SW 27 Lane,
and concluded that the portion of SW 27 Lane should be closed based on the high amount of cut -through traffic
and the violation of the one-way street designations, considered a hazardous situation. The City constructed a
half street closure to enforce its one-way traffic west bound regulation. The Police Department, Department of
Fire Rescue, General Services Administration/Solid Waste Department, and Miami Dade County Public
Schools have evaluated the effects of the vehicular access restrictions upon their respective operations. A
complete street closure barricade design was created, including the recommendations of the various City
Departments, to ensure that emergency vehicles be provided access at all times. Property owners in the
affected area voted over 2/3 majority in favor of installing a permanent barricade during a special neighborhood
election held on August 8, 2008. The street closure barricade must also be approved by the Metropolitan
Dade County Traffic Director.
