TECHNOLOGY
The Team will incorporate technology and social media as public outreach strategies. The
Team will share information with stakeholders using social media tools such as Facebook
and YouTube. The Miami-Dade MPO’s Facebook page will send 2040 LRTP updates directly
to mobile devices or computers. It provides another tool for the stakeholder to connect to
the process and stay involved. At the Miami-Dade MPO 2040 LRTP Channel on YouTube,
residents may watch the introductory and final videos as well as recorded public meetings
on demand.
During the 2040 LRTP process, the general public will be reached in their homes, businesses,
or wherever they may connect. To eliminate transportation barriers and make access easier
and convenient, the Team will schedule webcasts of certain public meetings during the
process. Residents will register to participate online and receive a broadcast reminder in
advance of the meeting, directing them to the 2040 LRTP website. This feature will be
promoted through electronic messages and other LRTP-related materials.
Furthermore, the MPO Governing Board, municipalities, and the Miami-Dade County Public
School Board will be encouraged to connect their constituents to the process by adding a
2040 LRTP link to their websites (see Table 4).
