President visits Miami transportation project
President Obama toured the construction site for the new Port of Miami tunnel on March 29 as part of an outreach program to encourage greater spending on infrastructure improvements. The $1 billion tunnel project will link the Port of Miami with the interstate highway system (I-395 and I-95). When completed in August 2014, the tunnel will provide improved access for trucks and cruise passengers destined for the Port of Miami, taking heavy traffic off the streets of downtown Miami, eliminating a source of congestion and improving air quality.
