Aventura is a future Brightline infill train station in Ojus, Florida.[3][4] It will be located on Dixie Highway west of the Aventura Mall, on a site that was purchased by Brightline (then known as Virgin Trains USA) and donated to Miami-Dade County, who is partly funding construction.[5] A groundbreaking ceremony was held September 3, 2020. Prior to Brightline's ongoing suspension of service due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the station had been expected to open in the fall of 2021.[6] The opening date has been pushed back to October 2022. Inter-city service will be provided to MiamiCentral in about 15 minutes, and trains will run as far north as West Palm Beach until the Orlando extension is opened in 2023.
