MIAMI — Brightline’s new stations in Boca Raton and Aventura continue to be a boon to ridership.
Miami Today reports the two stations, which opened in late December, contributed 27% of the passenger carrier’s total ridership in January, according to Brightline’s monthly ridership and revenue report. The two handled 42,391 of the 157,137 total riders; the ridership report called those numbers “encouraging” and said the company believes “the new stations will contribute substantial incremental annual passengers and revenue upon stabilization.”
The Aventura station is just 17 minutes from downtown Miami. Discounted tickets to Brightline’s MiamiCentral station are offered online or through Brightline’s smartphone app under an agreement with Miami-Dade Transit, with monthly commuter passes available at the Aventura station guest services desk.
