FDOT District Six Supports Hard Rock Stadium For International Soccer Tournament

The District Six Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O) Office
provided traffic management support for the Hard Rock stadium during the Copa America
soccer tournament in July.

 

SunGuide Transportation Management Center (STMC) staff was on site for all three
matches in Miami including the championship match. Staff served as the liaison between
the stadium’s transportation and security team and the STMC. They were responsible for
monitoring traffic conditions on the roadways adjacent to the stadium using the District’s
closed circuit television cameras and other devices. The goal was to communicate real time
traffic information to stadium staff mitigating potential delays and promoting safety. Staff
also coordinated dynamic message sign plans and provided incident management
support throughout the weekend. The District’s operation staff were recognized by community
leaders, including the Mayor of Miami-Dade County at the event.

 

This effort is part of the TSM&O’s ongoing mission to support local partners during
special events that impact our region. The District understands that interagency
coordination is essential for the safety and mobility of our roadways and will provide our
partners with the resources needed during high traffic generating events.
