Ms. Diana Iglesias, Freeway/Arterial Management Specialist IV, spoke to students about the essential role transportation plays in daily life, from ensuring the safe and efficient movement of people and goods to supporting overall quality of life. She explained how various engineering disciplines, including civil, structural, design, and computer engineers, work together to build and maintain Florida’s transportation infrastructure.

Her presentation walked students through FDOT’s roadway development process, from planning and design to construction, maintenance, and operations. She also highlighted how technology drives innovation in transportation and concluded with a video celebrating 20 years of the TSM&O Program. The session received such positive feedback that school administrators invited Ms. Iglesias to present to an additional class that day.

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.
