Bidding for the construction of the new complex is expected to start next month.
Plans to build a new jail complex in Miami-Dade County, to the tune of more than $400 million, continue to move forward — despite objections from activist groups.
The bidding process for constructing the new complex is expected to start as soon as January, the Miami-Dade mayor’s office told WLRN. A final vote for the project is expected to come before the Miami-Dade County commission in the spring.
