1963 - the original entrance to Palm Springs North from the Palmetto Expressway

The Big Bend on the Palmetto Expressway, Dade County, Florida


This image shows the original entrance/exit road to Palm Springs North from the Palmetto Expressway. The speed limit on the Palmetto was 70mph back then and traffic slowing to make the exit from either direction was hazardous and people entering the expressway from a dead stop was even more dangerous. Eventually they built NW 169th Street to connect to the entrance road from NW 67th Avenue and closed the entrance/exit road shown in this image.
