State Road 858 (Florida)
Encyclopedia
Also known as Hallandale Beach Boulevard, State Road 858 is a 5.44-mile-long divided highway in southern Broward County, Florida
. Its western terminus is an intersection with U.S. Route 441
/Florida State Road 7 at the border between Miramar
and West Park
; its eastern terminus is an intersection with South Ocean Drive (SR A1A
) on the boundary between Hallandale and Hollywood
, just east of the Intracoastal Waterway
.
. SR 858 takes Hallandale Beach Boulevard east into West Park as a mostly commercial road. At 56th Avenue, the road leaves West Park and enters Pembroke Park
, continuing in a blend of residential and commercial properties, including mobile homes. SR 858 then has an interchange with Interstate 95
, where to the east of the interchange, SR 858 enters Hallandale, and becomes an almost purely commercial road for the rest of the road. The road then crosses Dixie Highway
and the Florida East Coast Railroad, and then passes by the northern end of the Gulfstream Park
Race Track just east of the intersection of South Federal Highway (US 1
/SR 5). Between Federal Highway and the eastern terminus, the road passes through several shopping centers, crossing the Intracoastal Waterway
on a drawbridge one block west of SR A1A, the eastern terminus of SR 858, one block west of the ocean and just south of Hollywood
.
West of SR 858's western terminus, the road becomes Broward County Road 858, and is known locally as Miramar Parkway, with the entire county road being located in Miramar. The County Road designation extends 9 miles (14.5 km) to the west as a mostly residential road, crossing Florida's Turnpike
without an interchange, intersections with University Drive (SR 817
), State Road 823, before ending at an intersection with Interstate 75
, while Miramar Parkway continues an additional 2.5 miles (4 km) westward, until its intersection with 196th Avenue in Miramar.
As part of a statewide reorganization, Florida Department of Transportation
transferred the SR 824 signage to a longer stretch of Pembroke Road and assigned State Road 858 to Hallandale Beach Boulevard (despite having SR 852
and SR 854
being to the south). At the same time, the SR 858 designation was transferred from Oil Well Road in Collier County
that extended westward from Sunnyland Station on the Collier-Hendry County
boundary line.
At one point, the entire length of SR 858 was to be upgraded to become the Snake Creek Expressway, but eventually, the plans changed to where the expressway was shifted just south to become the Broward County portion of the Homestead Extension of Florida's Turnpike
.
While the land along the western two-thirds of Miramar Parkway is in the process of development
as the population of southwestern Broward County has been undergoing rapid growth since the late 1980s, the neighborhoods along the eastern part (including CR 858) are now fully constructed as suburban housing
, which continues along most of SR 858 west of South Dixie Highway
(which had the designation of SR 5A
until the 1990s).
