Brightline<\/a>, seamlessly connecting travelers between Central and South Florida, formally announced that it has selected Martin County and the City of Stuart as the site for its next intercity passenger rail station. The location was chosen after a review of five proposals from private and public land owners along the Brightline\/Florida East Coast Railway corridor in Martin and St. Lucie counties. Brightline was joined at today\u2019s announcement by Rep. Brian Mast (FL-21) and elected officials from the County and City. Expanding into the Treasure Coast will make Brightline one of the most accessible forms of transportation in Florida, giving access to nearly half of the state\u2019s residents and millions of visitors.<\/p>\n

The decision to select Stuart was driven by a number of key factors, including the location and physical characteristics of the site and the ease with which the site will integrate into Brightline\u2019s existing rail infrastructure network. Brightline also highlighted various dynamics of the local market and the site\u2019s accessibility to key local attractions.<\/p>\n

The announcement of the station site kicks off the process of memorializing a deal structure with Martin County and the City of Stuart. Following City and County approvals, Brightline and its partners will start the design and engineering of the station, parking structure and necessary rail infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The proposed Brightline Stuart station is located on 2.35 acres in the heart of historic downtown Stuart in Martin County. The station is conveniently located between the Miami and Orlando stations. Its location is approximately 40 miles north of Brightline West Palm Beach, just 40 minutes by train, and the station is easily accessible from I-95, Florida\u2019s Turnpike and the local roadway network. Brightline Stuart guests will be within walking distance of the award-winning downtown and minutes from Stuart\u2019s pristine beaches, oceanfront resorts, and internationally acclaimed \u201cTreasure Coast\u201d lifestyle.<\/p>\n
