The City of Miami has a well organized system of transportation which allows locals and tourists to move from place to place without a problem. The Miami-Dade transit department has a metrobus and metrorail system running daily and under a timely schedule. The Miami transportation bus system covers Miami-Dade County from Miami Beach to West Miami-Dade and from the Middle Keys to the southern portion of Broward County. Every Metrobus stop has a sign followed by the route numbers of the buses that pass by. First, you should make sure to wait by the correct stop for your safety, and get on the right route which appears on the windshield of the bus. Failure to carefully pay attention to this, might cause you to end lost somewhere else.
