More info: Because Miami is tightly squeezed between the Everglades and the Atlantic Ocean, there is very little room to expand highway infrastructure.
One reason traffic is so bad is that the area relies heavily on cars due to a sparse rail and public transport network. Another cause is drawbridges in spots like Brickell which hold up traffic when yachts pass. A single yacht passing through can shut down an entire avenue for 15 minutes, causing a ripple effect that lasts for hours.
Morning Rush: Heavy congestion builds heavily between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM.
Evening Rush: Typically peaks from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
