Florida Roads - FL 84

FL 84

FL 84 is the old Alligator Alley, but once that highway was dualized and grade-separated it became an extension of I-75, and FL 84 was left in two pieces - east of I-595, and as a surface street alongside I-595 and I-75 to US 27.


The dead end that was once the beginning of the Alligator Alley in Naples. FL 84 ends just behind the camera at this traffic light. Traffic must turn left on Collier CR 951 to get to I-75 to continue onto the now-dualized highway.


Westbound in 1978 courtesy Michael Summa along what is now I-595 but was then just a continuation of Alligator Alley and thus bore the same number.


EB at US 1 and WB heading away from it, both courtesy J.P. Nasiatka. FL 84 continues a few blocks east before ending, so this is the effective end. Problems on both sides: the glaring use of NJDOT black shield backgrounds, the failure to use mixed case for destinations, the obvious patch over a much cooler button copy shield, and the equation of I-95 to Florida's Turnpike. Maybe when the sign was fabricated, I-95 was not yet complete, but now this implies that both roads are the same.
