context_page_description: U.S. Highway 1 in Florida runs 545 miles along the state's east coast– from Key West to its crossing of the St. Marys River into Georgia north of Boulogne –and south of Folkston. US 1 was designated through Florida when the United States Numbered Highway System was established in 1926. The road is maintained by the Florida Department of Transportation.
  From its national southern terminus in Key West, US 1 carries the Overseas Highway– the Keys main highway –north to the mainland, entering South Florida. From South Florida to Jacksonville, US 1 runs close to the coastline of the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, generally east of Interstate 95 and west of State Road A1A, running roughly parallel with both roads. North of Jacksonville, US 1 curves inland towards the St. Mary's River as it enters Georgia.
  As is the case with all Florida roads with national designations, the entirety of US 1 has a hidden FDOT designation:
context_section_description: Entering Broward County near Hallandale Beach, US 1 first intersects State Road 858. Next it meets the eastern terminus of State Road 824, which provides access to Miramar and Pembroke Pines. Entering Hollywood, US 1 intersects State Road 820 in a traffic circle around Anniversary Park. In Dania Beach, it meets State Road 822 and State Road 848. Here State Road A1A also begins running concurrently with the road just south of Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport for a few miles. Near the southeastern corner of the airport, US 1 meets the eastern terminus of State Road 818. It then proceeds to run around the eastern edge of the airport. On the northeastern corner, US 1 meets I-595. Now in Fort Lauderdale as Federal Highway, it intersects the eastern terminus of State Road 84. Another ½ mile beyond, A1A ends its concurrency with US 1 and returns to the barrier island. One mile south of downtown, it meets the eastern terminus of State Road 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 of Miami Tunnel). The next major intersection is with State Road 842. US 1 then turns east for one mile in concurrency with State Road 838 before separating again and turning north (The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale is located near this intersection). The last two major intersections in Fort Lauderdale are with State Roads 816 and 870. US 1 then enters Pompano Beach. As it makes its way through Pompano Beach, it intersects State Road 814. It then passes by the Pompano Beach Airpark, the Pompano Beach Golf Club, and Pompano Citi Centre at the intersection of Copans Road. The road then proceeds to enter Deerfield Beach, where it meets SE 10th Street and State Road 810. US 1 then crosses the Hillsboro Canal and exits Deerfield Beach and Broward County.
