Construction crews used a fleet of roughly 100 construction trucks on Saturday to haul concrete to the site of All Aboard Florida’s Brightline train station in downtown Miami, marking the final foundation work at the site.
The pour was expected to complete the foundation at the company’s MiamiCentral station. The company said crews poured 5,500 cubic yards of concrete at the site, which spans six city blocks and is located within walking distance of the American Airlines Arena and a short shuttle ride from PortMiami.
The work was expected to take about 18 hours to complete. Brightline officials said Saturday’s work will mark the largest concrete pour at the site.
After the weekend work, Brightline officials said vertical construction is set begin on the station’s buildings and train platforms.
