Florida State Road 692

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

State Road 692 is a short freeway connector north of St. Petersburg. It was built in 2002 to connect CR 296 (118th Avenue N, which is being upgraded into a high-speed arterial) to SR 93 (Interstate 275). The interchange at the east end only provides access in three of four directions; there is no ramp from I-275 northbound to SR 692, though that is planned for future construction. There is also no access between SR 692 and SR 686 at the east end.

When it opened, SR 692 was unsigned. From I-275 it is signed as 118th Avenue N, the street it leads to, and from CR 296 it is signed for I-275.

[edit] History

SR 692 opened in 2002. This is the first instance of a Florida State Road with this number.

[edit] Future

There are plans to continue SR 692 west from its current end at CR 296 (118th Avenue) and 31st Court, making the last piece into ramps to CR 296. The extension would go west and then north into SR 686 (Roosevelt Boulevard) at SR 688 (Ulmerton Road), which would be upgraded to a freeway to the south end of the Bayside Bridge (part of CR 611).
