For those motorists who prefer

an alternate route from Daytona
Beach.
West From Dat0na
U. S. / to Daytona Beach is
fairly clear of serious impede
ments to traffic and therefore
is no problem. Going south from
Daytona, it is possible to take
Route 80 west onto Route A to
Sanford and Orlando and thence
to the cattle city of Kissimee
and then south on Route AL
right into Miami.
Surprisingly enough, the 200
mile stretch between Kissimee
and Miami city limits contains
only seven traffic lights.
While this route is geograph-
ically longer, motorists will find
that it is fast, comparatively
safe and, except for some WIDEN
ing and resurfacing between
Sanford and Orlando, there are
no detours or instructions.
