Miami-Dade Transit operates the Metrorail rapid transit system and the Metromover people mover system in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. The network consists of two Metrorail lines (Green Line and Orange Line) and three Metromover lines (Brickell Loop, Inner Loop, and Omni Loop). In February 2016, the entire system served 112,500 passengers per weekday, with 77,200 passengers riding the Metrorail and 35,300 riding the Metromover.[1] Miami-Dade Transit operates 42 metro stations, with 23 in the Metrorail system and 21 in the Metromover system; Brickell and Government Center stations serve both systems, allowing for transfers between all Metrorail and Metromover lines.[2][3]

Metrorail service began on May 20, 1984, with the opening of the 11-mile (18 km) southern segment between the Dadeland South station in Kendall and the Historic Overtown/Lyric Theatre station in the Overtown neighborhood of Miami.[4][5] On December 17, 1984, the line was expanded 4 miles (6.4 km) to the northwest with the opening of an additional five stations through Earlington Heights station.[6] The initial 20-station Metrorail line opened for full service on May 19, 1985, following the completion of the final five stations through its terminus at Okeechobee station in Hialeah.[7]

Since completion of the original line in 1985, one infill station and two extensions have been added. Tri-Rail station was opened in 1989, providing a connection to the new Tri-Rail commuter rail service. The line was extended 1.4 miles (2.3 km) in 2003, with a new northern terminus at Palmetto station in Hialeah.[8] The 2.4-mile (3.9 km) AirportLink branch and Miami International Airport (MIA) station in opened in 2012. The Metrorail system was split into two lines: the existing service from Palmetto to Dadeland South was designated as the Green Line, and the new service from MIA to Dadeland South was designated as the Orange Line.[9]

Metromover service began on April 17, 1986, with the opening of the initial 1.9-mile (3.1 km) loop through Downtown Miami.[3][10] On May 26, 1994, service expanded with the opening of the 1.4-mile (2.3 km) Omni Loop and 1.1-mile (1.8 km) Brickell Loop branches.[3][11] Bicentennial Park station on the Omni Loop closed in 1996 due to low ridership; it was renovated and reopened in 2013 as Museum Park station.[12][13]
