A day after Tampa officials toured Brightline high-speed rail facilities across Florida, Mayor Jane Castor enthused about the company's proposed expansion to Tampa.
Transportation in Miami Dade is great, you can take a several buses on the busway from Homestead/Florida City to metro rail. Take metro mover to airport. You also can reverse and take a bus down to Florida City, than take a bus down through the Florida Keys. Can you imagine being able to go from Tampa to Key West.
Lakeland is a big city and since the line will be passing through it anyway I'm sure they'll want to build a station there, most likely in the median of I4 near the Greyhound bus station.
@@MarioYoshi4723 they also increase the vagrancy city's deal with mainly based on lack of effective means to keep homelessness down. Across the country, in major city's. Homelessness becomes a bigger problem when "traffic" increases. Sure, they'll move them around the city or spread them out more but the fact remains that the city's with more "traffic" brings in more homeless persons. I only know this because I travel throughout the country fulltime reviewing city issues dealing with the homeless population and the lack of resources to help them. Up until just a few years ago, most were veterans who were lost through the system for lack of support through their benefits by either lack of funding and or lack of effective care. There are many organizations across the country trying to help the homeless vets but again, funding is the issue. Most just need proper medical care and can't get it effectively. Example, my cousin had to wait a year for a surgery I can have within a month through my health insurance. He is a disabled vet only after 4 years of service so he doesn't receive a large enough benefit each month to get proper care. Thankfully, he's in a home he owns 100% and his bills are met but even he sees the lack of proper care and how service members who don't have proper support just start living the homeless life based on depression. I would just prefer that instead of building a luxury benefit for those of means, build a stronger community within the communities around Tampa and be a shining example for other city's instead of mirroring other city's and their issues.

Please add a stop in Lakeland

Do it yes!
Why not clean the city before committing tax payer funds to programs that will be a detriment to the surrounding area.
What do you mean “detriment”? Brightline stations have proven time and time again to boost economies in surrounding areas.
