MIAMI (WSVN) - Miami Mayor Francis Suarez and city officials held a ribbon cutting ceremony for a trolley route in Liberty City

The ceremony occurred at Charles Hadley Park, at 1350 NW 50th St., Monday.

The Liberty City trolley will operate Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. and will have 59 stops along its route.

“One of the major costs in a family is transportation along with housing and food, and so for us to be able to work with the community, get a trolley system that runs, that goes to the areas they wanted to go to for free, for them, is a huge benefit,” Suarez said.

The route connects to Metro Bus stops, the Metrorail via the Allapattah Station and the Little Haiti trolley.

This is the 13th trolley route for Miami.
