The Midtown Interchange,[1][2] located in the Civic Center and Overtown[3] neighborhoods of Miami, Florida, is the convergence of three major motorways: I-95, I-395 (which connects to the MacArthur Causeway to the east), and the Dolphin Expressway (SR 836).
Description
[edit | edit source]Since its opening in 1968, eight lanes have been added to I-95 and an undersea tunnel below Biscayne Bay has been added from the end of I-395 near Museum Park. The tunnel serves as a direct freeway connection to the PortMiami, expected to alleviate freight traffic in Downtown Miami.[4][5]
As of 2025, most of the interchange is being rebuilt as part of the Signature Bridge project for I-395 just east of the interchange that also includes double decking the eastern end of the Dolphin Expressway.[6] The near one billion dollar project is not expected to be completed until the late 2020s.
