Florida State Road 585
State Road 585 (SR 585) was a 2.782-mile-long (4.477 km), north–south state highway in Tampa, Florida connecting U.S. Route 41 Business (US 41 Bus.) with Interstate 4 (I-4) and US 92. The completion of the I-4/Selmon Expressway Connector provided a new corridor for traffic traveling between the two freeways, resulting in the Florida Department of Transportation relinquishing SR 585 to the city of Tampa in December 2016.
