Route description
Kendall Drive eastbound between Galloway Road and the Palmetto Expressway, just west of Dadeland, July 2008The road begins at SR 997 in western Miami-Dade County, heading east. The Homestead Extension of Florida's Turnpike provides an interchange near the western end of the road just west of 117th Avenue, followed by an interchange with the Palmetto Expressway just west of the Dadeland Mall before ending at US 1.[2][3]
SR 94 is not to be confused with the defunct US 94 -- itself SR 90 -- which was absorbed by US 41 in 1949. SR 94 should also not be confused with Loop Road, a roadway formerly known as SR 94, which connects to US 41 in two different locations forming a loop in Big Cypress National Preserve. Loop Road, is currently managed by the National Park Service and no longer has any numbered designation.
