South Florida Now Seamless

SoFloGO brings together four major transit systems — Tri-Rail; BCT; Palm Tran; and DTPW’s Metrorail, Metrobus, and Metromover services — into one intuitive platform. The app offers multimodal trip planning, real-time arrival updates, live directions, mobile ticketing, and service alerts, creating a unified travel experience across county lines.

The app’s user-friendly features include deboarding alerts and step-by-step guidance for entire journeys, making it easier than ever to navigate South Florida’s diverse transportation network. With an inclusive design, the app also prioritizes accessibility, offering screen reader compatibility, step-free route options, and optimized navigation for riders with mobility challenges.

Features of the SoFloGo app include:

  • Multimodal Trip Planning: Suggests optimized routes across buses and trains.

  • Real-Time Information: Provides live tracking of buses and trains to minimize wait times.

  • Mobile Ticketing: Enables seamless fare payment from each transit agency directly within the app.

  • Live Directions and Alerts: Offers step-by-step guidance, including service alerts to avoid disruptions.

  • Accessibility Features: Ensures inclusivity with screen readers, step-free route options, and ergonomic menus.

The development of SoFloGO was made possible through funding from the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization, whose generous support reflects the region’s vision of fare interoperability and enhanced connectivity.

Meeting Growing Transit Needs

With South Florida’s population and tourism on the rise, demand for efficient, connected transit is critical. SoFloGO meets this need by uniting transit options in one app, giving riders a reliable way to navigate Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, explained Coree Cuff Lonergan, CEO/GM at BCT.

“SoFloGo is a game-changer for public transit in South Florida, and especially for the residents of Broward County, bringing together multiple transportation systems into one seamless experience,” she said. “For the first time, our riders have a single, seamless way to plan trips and pay fares across county lines. This collaboration represents a major step forward in making transit more accessible, efficient, and user-friendly.”

“Whenever we can leverage innovative technologies to make public transportation easier and more appealing, everybody wins,” added DTPW Director Stacy Miller. “This is an important step forward that our partners at the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority are taking to enhance our customers’ experience.”
