Interstate 95 (I-95) is the main Interstate Highway of Florida's Atlantic Coast.It begins at a partial interchange with US Highway 1 (US 1) just south of downtown Miami and heads north through Jacksonville, and to the Georgia state line at the St. Marys River near Becker.
Eventually it enters part of the Withlacoochee State Forest, and some distance later, the Pasco-Sumter Line is replaced by the Hernando-Sumter Line. After leaving the forest the road crosses over the Little Withlacoochee River where the Hernando-Sumter border turns west, and SR 471 is now entirely in Sumter County.
One mile (1.6 km) south of downtown, it meets the eastern terminus of SR 736. The road enters downtown Fort Lauderdale via the New River Tunnel, one of only a few underwater road tunnels in the state (the other on a state road being the Port Miami Tunnel). The next major intersection is with SR 842.
Just north of the Southwest 120th Street exit, still at mile 19, lies the Snapper Creek Service plaza, which is located on the center median with access from both directions and is the only plaza on the extension; unlike the more robust services along the mainline, it only offers a convenience store inside the gas station.

[1] The department was formed in 1969. It absorbed the powers of the State Road Department (SRD). The current Secretary of Transportation is Jared W. Perdue.
