County Road 912 (Broward County, Florida)

County Road 912 is a 2.3 mile long east–west street that once served as the primary access to Florida's Turnpike (SR 91) for northern Broward County. It is also known as Coconut Creek Parkway in Margate and Pompano Beach, Florida, and was formerly signed as State Road 912. The western terminus of CR 912 is an intersection with US 441 (SR 7) in Margate; the eastern terminus is an intersection with SR 849 at a trumpet interchange with the Turnpike.

The east-west street continues without any Florida Department of Transportation designation (as Martin Luther King Boulevard and Hammondville Road) for another 4.2 miles until an intersection with North Dixie Highway (SR 811). From 1945 until the early 1970s, all of Hammondville Road/Coconut Creek Parkway was SR 814, which continued eastward to SR A1A (as it still does) on Atlantic Avenue. From the early 1970s to about 1983, State Road 814 between the Turnpike and Dixie Highway was rerouted along the (then-)entirety of Atlantic Boulevard. This alignment of SR 814 lasted about a decade, before the western end of SR 814 was rerouted onto a westward extension of Atlantic Boulevard, the north-south section along 31st Street was redesignated State Road 849 by FDOT, and Coconut Creek Parkway became SR 912. About the year 2000, State Road 912 was returned to Broward County control and maintenance.

While not maintaining the importance that it once had as SR 814, Coconut Creek Parkway remains a significant commercial corridor and commuter road. Along with several shopping centers, CR 912 provides access to Broward Community College – North Campus, adjacent to the Turnpike and less than a half mile west of the termini of both former SR 912 and current SR 849.
