UM reverses campus traffic growth – Miami Today

As the University of Miami has grown over the past two decades, it has shrunk its neighborhood traffic impact, a university study says.

Janet Gavarrete, associate vice president of campus planning and development, said those living in the residential neighborhood north of Lake Osceola have often blamed the university for creating traffic on their streets. The university is an easy scapegoat, she said, because residents regularly see construction projects rising on campus.
