FDOT Drawbridge Systems

Status: Existing

Description: Miami–based US Coast Guard determines schedule for bridge openings and closings based on marine traffic and weather conditions. Marine traffic receives information from the Coast Guard on bridge schedules. Bridge tenders working for FDOT Districts and Counties actually control the raising and lowering of the bridges. Transponders that provide bridge status information (none currently implemented) would provide this information directly to the FDOT District Office and other operating agencies.

Stakeholder: FDOT CO
