BudgetResidents can request that a particular street or streets within a neighborhood be inspected for improvements in three waysStreets andor neighborhood improvements are identified and rated based upon the level of distress and are prioritized in consultation with community organizations ie HOAs elected officials and city administratorsThe City of Miami strives to maintain access to businesses and residences at all times There are occasions when it is necessary to temporarily close a driveway to perform projectrelated work Based on the nature of the construction work there are times when even parking restrictions are needed to allow the heavy construction activity to be performed Construction work usually requires a local and emergency lane at all times In unique situations the street may be too narrow for access while work is occurring Whenever this is necessary the project team makes every effort to coordinate with the property owners in advance to minimize impactsContractors are required to remove all temporary detour and parking restriction signs upon completion of the construction project however the project sign will remain in place until the project has been inspected by the Department of Resilience Public Works For concerns please contact us directly at 305 4161280 or email us at askOCImiamigovcomNo not all construction projects throughout the City are administered by OCI Other City departments such as the Department of Resilience Public Works oversee their own specific construction projects as well Also road construction projects on County State and arterial roads are handled by their corresponding government agencies Construction project signs and other notices will be posted around all Capital Improvements projectsCity contractors are responsible for repairingrestoring any property or area that is damaged during construction Contact us at askOCImiamigovcom to determine if this work is managed by the Office of Capital Improvements If so a Public
