TRI Rail South Florida

[island284]

i know many of us use Tri Rail for transportation to and from PE and Miami. I was out on their site today and it states TRI RAIL WILL RESUME SERVICE SATURDAY, Sept 16 with free ridership through the weekend.

 

I hope this helps some of you who need this info.

The normal $5 single ticket fare is a good deal as well.

I am hoping someone can tell me the route from POM to Port Everglades using the trirail.

You would board at the Deerfield, Cypress Creek, or Pompano. Pompano station - which ever is closest to you and go SOUTH to the Ft. lauderdale AIRPORT station. (Station order north to south is Deerfield, then going south Pompano, then Crpress Creek, then Ft. Lauderdale/Broward Blvd station.). The Ft L AIRPORT station is just AFTER the Ft L/broward Blvd station). Trains run every hour. The taxi fare from the station to the port is between $15-$20 depending on the route the taxi driver takes.

No way in the world I'd drag luggage on and off a train for that trip

Take a cab or a shuttle. Not worth the trouble IMO at all as you have to take a cab to tri-rail and a cab from tri-rail to port everglades. We only take tri-rail if we are staying with family and we need to get to FLL or PBI.

The person asked about TRI RAIL from POM which usually stands for Pompano Beach. These are the correct stations for Tri Rail.

 

I agree that I wouldn't hop on TRI Rail for that short of distance but they asked for info and I furnished it.

I thimk in this case POM = Port of Miami.

No cab needed at the Miami end - the free monorail goes from the airport to the Tri-rail station - same as the car rentals. You are right though - probably not worth the hassle for most, maybe for a single without much luggage. On a weekday in rush hour though, it is a good choice. Relaxing with the free wifi while the traffic on I95 is a parking lot does have some merit.

Same here. Would pay for whatever shuttles or taxis necessary before lugging suitcases on a train.

POM/PE to PBI (Transfers Aren't Cheap)

When is it not:

everything else

Thank you for all of the information. It definitely helped me decide to book a shuttle.
