For future reference, you can go through those gates even on the sidewalk to continue your quest. The further west you go, then you start running into gated communities where you have to enter a code or talk to a guard. Inside FTL city limits, you won't have to worry about that.

I've seen "no trespassing" signs on the outskirts of communities with no gates.

I do enough deliveries and rideshare to know what gates are truly gated and what's "fake."

If I remember correctly, the gate opened for me the last time I was in there.....18 months ago.

Private gated communities area not allowed in Ft Lauderdale proper. They were banned years ago. That guard will not stop you from entering the area, they will waive to you, if you waive to them as you drive by.

If there are any gates, they will go up automatically when you pull up to them. Today, they are just there for show.

Is there a reason why these roads have been changed to PRIVATE for access?

The Marina Mile entrance to Port Everglades is currently going under a construction project. There are several things going on at the same time between US 1 and Eisenhower.

The u-turn has been eliminated (I just removed it), there are now plastic poles, a repaving has happened, there's a new turn lane, another turn lane being expanded, and that's just between the gate and US-1.

Once inside the port, there's a repaving, realigning of the roads, and putting in a roundabout.

I'm going to request that Lyft editing in this area stop, as things do change on a weekly basis. I am on the port every weekend (doing Lyft) and have eyes on this pretty regularly.

It was a typo.

You changed the Water Taxi stop from Broward County Transit to BCT. I don't think the Water Taxi is part of BCT, I believe it's a private entity that operates on the water. So, where is the BCT coming from?

May I ask where these service roads came from? Are these from Lyft dash cams, or somewhere else?

The reason why I ask is that is a construction site for a new garage and that area is NOT open to the public. Those roads may also change at any given moment, as I believe they're only dirt roads.

Is FDot hiring for the position you have? I'd be interested.

They’ll always show, but the segments through the gates should prevent people from being routed through there.

Heads up, though….there’s a lot of road construction going on in the port.

162031932

You’re right, you can’t walk up. They don’t allow pedestrian traffic through the gates, only vehicles. Pedestrian traffic is allowed on the roads inside the gate, however it’s not advisable due to lack of sidewalks in a lot of the areas.

These aren't private roads, they're public roads. They're government owned and anyone can drive on them, even if you don't have business in the port.

I understand that you go through a gate with security, but they're not there really checking to see if you have business on the port or not. I can have a McDonald's bag and say "I'm dropping off lunch to my wife/gf/whomever" and they'll let me on without verifying anything.

Port Everglades just opened up a new bypass, which has moved the gates back off of Marina Mile (SE 24th St) and Eisenhower. I drew the bridge, but some assistance can be brought in using camera view imagery. SATIMG is very outdated (doesn't even show the construction that's been going on for a year).

I've driven it and have dash cam video of the bridge, but don't have knowledge of how far back the gates have been moved.

They've made it to where the anyone can use the bypass to get to/from 2 berths at the port which the cruise lines use, easier, instead of going through the port and stopping at the gate. This will be a long process to get it mapped correctly and will take various sources outside of SATIMG.

I usually do Lyft/Uber on the weekends for the cruise people, so I can get in there pretty easily, but I'm only one person with one camera. You have access to many people with many cameras. =)

It is best to NOT edit FLL based off of SATIMG, as there is massive construction going on especially in the area where this roundabout used to be. Terminal 5 is going there, roads are being redone in the area. If you are looking at dash cam videos that are less than a week old, then that's fine to edit from.

I do Uber/Lyft in the area and can update it pretty quickly. I do have a dash cam that I can go back and look at as well. I'm in the airport area quite a bit during the weekends. I've already started tinkering with the airport areas where I see things that are wrong or have been moved.

The lines on the exit ramp for the airport have been redone and it looks like they may close off one of the lanes.

171354093

I have a ton of info which is very current as of Sunday. That roundabout is gone. The airport is at a fifth terminal and I believe in the new road to get to the cell phone lot opens this week.

171354093

Can I see the video image of this changeset? I don't believe there's a roundabout there anymore.

161338710

Can you or someone from your organization reach out to me on Slack. I have some questions and possible insight to some of the things I see on Lyft.

Can you explain your reasoning behind turning US-1 into a motorway_link at the Ft Lauderdale International Airport?

I'm curious as to why that whole area all of a sudden became a motorway_link.

It was probably a typo done while I overlooked something. The Pewu says I did it correctly the day before and then added the wrong one the day after, so idk.

For future reference, if you see a single error like this of mine, no need to bring it up in a changeset, you can simply fix it.
