County Road 5A
Location Hallandale BeachDania Beach
Length4.9 mi [1]  (7.9 km)

County Road 5A is the unsigned designation along Dixie Highway in Hallandale Beach, Hollywood, and Dania Beach. [2]

Route description

CR 5A begins at NE 215th Street on the Broward/Miami-Dade County line in Hallandale Beach. From here, CR 5A heads north with northbound lanes running along SE First Avenue and southbound lanes running along Dixie Highway. The northbound and southbound lanes run beside each other with the Florida East Coast Railway running between them for most of its route. It continues north through Hallandale Beach and Hollywood. In Dania Beach, northbound traffic crosses the Florida East Coast Railway at Sheridan Street (SR 822) and both north and soundbound lanes reconnect on Dixie Highway. Dixie Highway then turns northeast away from the railroad corridor. CR 5A then comes to its northern terminus at U.S. Highway 1 (US 1) in Dania Beach. [1]

History

The road was originally part of the historic Dixie Highway which came into existence in the early 1900s. The Dixie Highway would be the main north-south road through the area until it was replaced by U.S. Route 1 (US 1) a few blocks to the east in the 1920s. The road would also be designated as State Road 173 (SR 173) until the 1945 Florida State Road renumbering. After that, it became SR 5A, an auxiliary route to US 1 (which carries the hidden designation SR 5). [3] The route was turned over to county control in the 1990s.

CR 840 begins in Tamarac at an intersection with SR 817 (University Drive). From here, it is known as West McNab Road and it heads east through North Lauderdale. On the east side of North Lauderdale, West McNab Road turns southeast and crosses US 441 and Florida's Turnpike on separate overpasses. Ramps between the two overpasses connect the road to US 441. Once over the Turnpike, CR 840 enters Fort Lauderdale and becomes NW 62nd Street. Less than a mile later, CR 840 intersects NW 31st Avenue and it becomes Cypress Creek Road. Cypress Creek Road continues east along the north side of Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport before coming to an intersection with SR 845 (Powerline Road). It then crosses the South Florida Rail Corridor (Tri-Rail line) just north of Cypress Creek station before coming to an intersection with Andrews Avenue (CR 811A). CR 840 then has an interchange with Interstate 95 before terminating at Dixie Highway (SR 811) between Oakland Park and Pompano Beach. [16]

At the western terminus, West McNab Road continues west as a residential street. At the eastern terminus, the road continues east as NE 62nd Street, a residential street. [16]

History

Part of the route was previously SR 840. [17] The route of CR 840 was planned to be part Cypress Creek Expressway in the 1970s but it was never built due to funding and opposition. [18] In 1983, Cypress Creek Road was extended west over Florida's Turnpike and US 441 to West McNab Road. [19]

Route description

Coconut Creek Parkway begins in Margate at US 441. From here, it heads east through Coconut Creek. Two miles later, Coconut Creek Parkway comes to an interchange with Florida's Turnpike. At the intersection with SR 849 (NW 31st Avenue), which is across from the Turnpike interchange ramps, CR 912 briefly becomes Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard. CR 912 terminates just beyond the SR 849/Turnpike intersection at Blount Road, where county maintenance ends. [23] Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard continues east as a city street from here to SR 811 in Pompano Beach. [2]

History

From 1945 until the early 1970s, Coconut Creek Parkway and Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard (both known then as Hammondville Road) were part of SR 814, which also continued eastward to State Road A1A on Atlantic Boulevard after a short zigzag involving North Dixie Highway (SR 811). In the early 1970s, SR 814 between Florida's Turnpike and Dixie Highway was rerouted along NW 31st Avenue south to Atlantic Boulevard east. [3] In 1983, Atlantic Boulevard was extended west of NW 31st Avenue and SR 814 was rerouted onto the new segment of Atlantic Boulevard. The northsouth section along NW 31 Avenue was redesignated State Road 849 by Florida Department of Transportation, and Hammondville Road became Coconut Creek Parkway and was redesignated SR 912. [24] Around the year 2000, SR 912 was relinquished to Broward County control and converted to CR 912.
