The Riviera Beach Community Redevelopment Agency on Dec. 10 authorized staff to move forward with a corridor mobility plan that the agency said will examine transit connectivity, pedestrian and bicycle access, and infrastructure needs along Broadway and Blue Heron corridors.

The board voted 4–1 to proceed after a presentation by E.L. Waters & Company and the Corradino Group outlining a nine‑month work program that includes audits of existing conditions, two community visioning workshops (month three and month seven), origin‑destination surveys and coordination with county and state transportation partners. "The actual project term is a 9 month plan," said Albert Waters of E.L. Waters & Company.

Commissioners highlighted three guiding priorities for the study: connectivity to other modes such as Palm Tran and Brightline, headways and frequency of service, and clearly defined destination points. "Connectivity, destination points and headway frequency are going to be very critical," said Commissioner Guyton.

The consultant said the work will include outreach events, small‑group charrettes and recorded sessions for broader community input. Staff said the CRA will coordinate the mobility plan with Palm Beach County and seek interlocal cooperation with neighboring municipalities and FDOT as needed.

Vice Chair Miller Anderson cast the lone dissent, saying she was not convinced by the current consultant mix and wanted more detail on why a transportation engineering firm was not engaged directly. Executive Director Jadel Murcias said E.L. Waters will manage planning services and may retain technical subcontractors as needed.

Next steps: staff will finalize the scope and schedule, begin initial data collection and coordinate with county planners on alignment with broader regional mobility efforts.
