THE SOMI MILE on The Underline

When completed in Fall 2026, The Underline will be a 10-mile linear mobility corridor below the Metrorail and will transform 120 acres of underutilized County-owned land below the aerial Metrorail tracks from the Miami River (Downtown) to the Dadeland South Metrorail Station into a first-class multimodal corridor. The $120 million project is funded by Miami Dade County, the Federal Transit Administration, the State of Florida, City of Miami, City of Coral Gables, City of South Miami, the Knight Foundation and private contributions. The Friends of The Underline, a 501(c)(3), is the organization shepherding the project.

CONSTRUCTION UPDATE – SEPTEMBER 2025


On “the SOMI mile” is cyclist, SOMI Magazine publisher and The  Underline Community Partner John Edward Smith with Meg Daly, Founder and Chairman of the Friends of The Underline and Eulois Cleckley, CEO of The   Friends of The Underline.

The Underline is one mile length within the City of South Miami.   Over the course of this next year, SOMI Magazine is documenting the transformation of the underutilized land under the Metrorail into a splendid urban park with cycling and walking trails, together with special amenities to bring communities together.
