MIAMI BEACH — Miami Beach is implementing more restrictive measures aiming "to put an end to spring break" in the city, including restrictions on beach access, license plate reader and DUI details, and heightened police patrol and enforcement for this weekend.

"The entire month of March has been designated as a high-impact period in Miami Beach, which has resulted in additional measures being taken with respect to traffic, staffing and public safety," the city stated in a Thursday afternoon press release.

The new measures come in the wake of a legal hearing between the City of Miami Beach and three South Beach nightclubs, who filed a complaint in Miami-Dade Court last week over the midnight curfew city leaders instated during St. Patrick's Day weekend.
