As prime engineering consultant, Bentley <br />provided design and oversight for a pedestrian bridge over <br />the Florida Turnpike exit ramp for Hard Rock Stadium, another <br />bridge over Northwest 199th Street (Dan Marino Boulevard) and <br />two tunnels under Don Shula Drive, the stadium perimeter road, <br />associated roadway improvements and maintenance of traffic <br />for the entire project. <br />The biggest benefit of the project is enhanced public safety. <br />The bridge will provide a safe way for pedestrians to cross over <br />Northwest 199th Street, where there's currently no bridge, and <br />the Turnpike Access Road. It will also improve access to Hard <br />Rock Stadium for event -goers. <br />The project is property of the Hard Rock Stadium and cost about <br />$16 million. It's being funded by the Florida Department of <br />Transportation and Hard Rock Stadium, with oversight by the <br />City of Miami Gardens. <br />The project allows free flow of pedestrian traffic to safely exit the <br />stadium and cross the adjacent roadways. <br />The project was completed just in time for the opening of the <br />National Football League's regular season and five months <br />before the stadium hosts Super Bowl LIV. The landmark sports <br />site, projected to host about 2 million visitors a year and <br />generate more than $13 million in sales tax revenues for the <br />state, remains the largest sports and entertainment complex in <br />the county. <br />0 <br />101- <br />
