County Road 5A
[edit] County Road 5A | |
|---|---|
| Location | Hallandale Beach–Dania Beach |
| Length | 4.9 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
[edit]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
[edit]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.

History
[edit]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 north–south 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.
