Florida State Road 9 (SR 9) is a state road in theU.S. state ofFlorida. While SR 9 is mainly used as a state designation forInterstate 95 in Florida from theGolden Glades Interchange inMiami Gardens to theGeorgia border (nearYulee, Florida), a signed SR 9, which is locally known in theMiami area asWest 27th Avenue,Unity Boulevard, and historicallyGrapeland Boulevard, extends 13 miles (21 km)[1] from theCoconut Grove section of Miami to theGolden Glades Interchange (where the unsigned portion continues northward along I-95). The segment of I-95 south of the Golden Glades Interchange carries the designation ofState Road 9A.
Southwest 27th Avenue begins locally at Bayshore Drive in theCoconut Grove neighborhood inMiami. The road heads north 0.9 miles (1.4 km) until it intersectsDixie Highway (US 1). SR 9 begins at this intersection, located between theCoral Way and Coconut Grove neighborhoods. SR 9 then makes its way north, cutting through all three sub-neighborhoods of Coral Way—Silver Bluff, Coral Gate, and Shenandoah—with a major intersection withCoral Way (SR 972) in the middle of it. After passing through Coral Way, SR 9's next major intersection is with theTamiami Trail (US 41 / SR 90) before passing through more residential areas. The next major intersection withFlagler Street is located only a block west from the historicMiami Senior High School, as well as a half block east from the Miami-Dade County Auditorium. SR 9 continues north for a mile before its interchange with theDolphin Expressway (SR 836). Five blocks north of the Dolphin Expressway, SR 9 crosses theMiami River into theAllapattah neighborhood. There are two major intersections in Allapatah: the first is with Northwest 36th Street (US 27 /SR 25), and the second is with theAirport Expressway (SR 112). Afterwards, SR 9 leaves Miami city limits and bisects theCDP ofBrownsville. While in Brownsville,Miami's Metrorail splits the street in two, with two lanes running in either direction on both sides of the track.
After its intersection withNorthwest 79th Street (SR 934), SR 9 enters the CDPs ofWest Little River andWestview. In Westview, its intersection withGratigny Road (SR 924) forms the east border and northeast corner ofMiami-Dade College's North Campus, and is also a quarter mile west from the former Westview Country Club.
As it enters the city ofOpa-locka, SR 9 intersects withNorthwest 135th Street (SR 916) before turning to the northeast. Here, Northwest 27th Avenue continues northward asState Road 817. The signed portion of SR 9 ends at theGolden Glades Interchange 2.0 miles (3.22 km) later; however,SR 9 continues northward as a designation of Interstate 95 to theGeorgia state line.
