Encyclopedia
State Road 390 is a two-lane highway
in Bay County
, Florida
. The route is signed as east–west but runs more north–south for much of its run. The western (southern) terminus is at the intersection of State Road 30 (U.S. 98 and U.S. BUS 98) and Florida State Road 30A (U.S. 98) in St. Andrews (part of Panama City
). The highway is carried by Beck Ave from this point until shortly after it crosses State Road 368 (23rd St), at which point it becomes St Andrews Blvd. The route winds northeasterly into Lynn Haven
, where it is carried by Tennessee Ave at one point. In Lynn Haven, the road eventually turns due east and intersects with State Road 77
(Ohio Ave), at which point state maintenance ends. The road continues as County 390 until its terminus at State Road 75 (U.S. 231). The county portion was signed as State Road S-390 before being given to the county in the late 1970s.
Further north on State Road 75 (U.S. 231), John Pitts Rd branches off to the east, and before the early 1980s, this road was signed as a segment of S-390. This road is now signed as County 2293 and eventually dead ends east of State Road 75 (U.S. 231).
