GMX project 83618: SW 137th Street Widening
Getting around west Miami-Dade will be easier with improvements coming to SW 137th Avenue between SW 8th Street and SW 26th Street. The project will add a travel lane in each direction to accommodate more vehicles and improve traffic flow, while resurfaced pavement will provide a smoother ride. New sidewalks and accessible curb ramps will improve pedestrian connections, drainage upgrades will help reduce roadway flooding, and a raised median, updated signals and clearer pavement markings will support safer travel. During construction, expect intermittent lane, sidewalk and crosswalk closures and a 35 mph work zone speed limit. Access to homes and businesses will remain open, and portable message signs will announce upcoming closures and traffic changes. Preliminary landscaping is scheduled for September 2026, with roadway construction beginning in January 2027 and completion anticipated in fall 2028
Project Status: Construction has begun and is scheduled for completion Fall 2028.
