Capital Improvement

The Capital Improvements application contains details about major improvement projects done by Miami-Dade County. Improvements such as the construction or reconstruction of public buildings, bridges, roads, sidewalks, landscaping and lighting are included. Small projects and maintenance of existing facilities are not included.

Participating county departments include: the Department of Environmental Regulation Management (DERM), Public Works, Aviation, Seaport, Police, Fire Rescue, Corrections and Rehabilitation, Park and Recreation, Library, Transit and Housing. At the present time this database does not include any details about Water and Sewer projects.

The County is responsible for most major roadway systems in Miami-Dade County, including substantial portions within municipalities. Projects directly funded by the State of Florida, the Federal Government or local municipalities without County participation are not included.

The application includes prior activities, current year projects and projected activities for the next five years. Each year the Capital Budget and Multi-year Capital Plan are updated prior to the beginning of the new fiscal year on October 1st.
