State Road 944 (SR 944), locally known as Hialeah Drive and North 54th Street, is a 5.822-mile-long (9.370 km) east–west street spanning

SR 5). Along with the north–south Palm Avenue, Hialeah Drive is a baseline for addresses in the City of Hialeah (most of Miami-Dade County uses Flagler Street and Miami Avenue
for its baselines).

Route description

SR 944 begins at an intersection with

Biscayne Boulevard).[1][2]

History

The genesis of today's SR 944 began when FDOT extended US 27 southward from

SR 826
(which morphed into the Palmetto Expressway several years after its opening), and the east–west State Road 25A.

Because it was routed over previously existing streets, SR 25A received its designation in 1950, well ahead of the other two planned bypasses; the configuration of the route has been unchanged since then. In a 1983 renumbering, the FDOT replaced the SR 25A designation with SR 944, the street's new insignia.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Miami-Dade County.
