Home » Guides » Florida » State Road 200

Mostly the hidden counterpart of U.S. 301 through North Florida, State Road 200 has two signed sections along its 155.8 mile alignment from Hernando to Fernandina Beach. The southern section angles 25.5 miles northeast from U.S. 41 and Citrus County to U.S. 27/301/441 (Pine Avenue) south of Downtown Ocala. All of SR 200 north from CR 484 (80th Avenue Road) at the Majorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway to SR 464 in Ocala consists of a heavily developed six lane arterial. Addressing traffic congestion at the exchange with Interstate 75, an $8 million project from Summer 2018 to Fall 2020. Work added new turn lanes from SR 200 to I-75, widened the right turn lane from SR 200 west to I-75 north, the southbound entrance ramp to I-75, and both ramps with I-75 northbound.1

The northern 26.8 mile segment stretches across Nassau County. Cosigned with SR A1A, SR 200 emerges from U.S. 301 at Callahan, with the two comprising a four lane, divided highway east to Interstate 95. A $60 million project from January 24, 2016 to Spring 2020 May 2021 expanded 4.9 miles of SR A1A/200 from four to six lanes between I-95 and O'Neill Scott Road. Suburban growth spreads along the roadway from U.S. 17 at Yulee east to Fernandina Beach. Crossing the Thomas J. Shave, Jr. Bridge over Kingsley Creek, SR A1A/200 reach Amelia Island and continue north along South 8th Street into the city of Fernandina Beach. SR 200 concludes in the business district where SR A1A turns east along Atlantic Avenue.
