(DPA). Please note on September 22nd 2004, we contacted DPA over the phone and requested supplemental information in order to complete the review. Attached please find our detail review comments and the supplemental information provided by DPA. We conclude the traffic report, along with the supplemental information provided by DPA adequately addresses all the traffic issues and are found to be sufficient. Please note the report does not provide any information regarding delivery vehicle maneuverability within the project site. As this project progresses through the review process, the applicant must submit an acceptable site circulation plan for approval by the City staff. This project is located immediately adjacent to the Metrorail line. As such, a Metrorail station along the western periphery of this project with an internal access from the project will help to encourage the use of mass transit in downtown Miami. We recommend the applicant should explore the feasibility of accommodating a Metrorail station within their site plan, Should you have any questions, please call me or Quazi Masood at 954.739.1881, Sine u tion Southern Ra Shanm.
