Route description

State Road 850 begins at the intersection of State Road 811 and Northlake Boulevard, with Northlake Boulevard serving as the border between Lake Park to the south and North Palm Beach to the north. SR 850 takes Northlake Boulevard east as a six lane divided road, with shopping destinations lining both sides of the road for the brief 1.2 mile road. The road crosses a small canal halfway through the road, and it enters North Palm Beach proper 0.2 miles west of the eastern terminus at US 1.[1][2]

West of the western terminus of SR 850, Northlake Boulevard continues for 13 miles (21 km) as Palm Beach County Road 809A (former State Road 809A), crossing the southernmost portion of Palm Beach Gardens and the northernmost corner of West Palm Beach before terminating in an intersection with Seminole Pratt Whitney Road, in the wetlands north of Loxahatchee.[1][2]
