 Flinders Street railway station is a railway station on the corner of Flinders and Swanston Streets in Melbourne , Victoria , Australia . It serves the entire metropolitan rail network . Backing onto the city reach of the Yarra River in the heart of the city , the complex covers two whole city blocks and extends from Swanston Street to Queen Street .

 Flinders Street is served by Metro 's suburban services , and V / Line regional services to Gippsland . It is the busiest station on Melbourne 's metropolitan network and the busiest railway station in Australia , with over 92,600 daily entries per weekday recorded in the 2011 / 12 fiscal year . It was the first railway station in an Australian city and the world 's busiest passenger station in the late 1920s .

 The main station building , completed in 1909 , is a cultural icon of Melbourne , with its prominent dome , arched entrance , tower and clocks -- one of the city 's most recognisable landmarks . It is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register . The Melburnian saying `` I 'll meet you under the clocks '' refers to the row of clocks above the main entrance , which indicate the time - tabled time of departure for trains on each line ; another saying , `` I 'll meet you on the steps '' , refers to the wide staircase underneath these clocks . Flinders Street Station is responsible for two of Melbourne 's busiest pedestrian crossings , both across Flinders Street , including one of Melbourne 's few pedestrian scrambles .

 History ( edit )

 Early terminus ( edit )

 Flinders Street Station , 1895 The Swanston Street Extension frontage of the pre-1910 station

 The first railway station to occupy the Flinders Street site was called Melbourne Terminus , and was a collection of weatherboard train sheds . It was opened on 12 September 1854 by the Lieutenant - Governor , Charles Hotham . The terminus was the first city railway station in Australia , and the opening day saw the first steam train trip in the country . It travelled to Sandridge ( now Port Melbourne ) , over the now redeveloped Sandridge Bridge , travelling along the now light rail Port Melbourne line .

 The first terminus had a single platform 30 metres long , and was located beside the Fish Market building on the south - west corner of Swanston and Flinders Streets . An additional platform was provided in 1877 , along with two overhead bridges to provide passenger access , followed by additional timber and corrugated iron buildings and a telegraph station in 1879 . The first signal boxes were opened at the station in 1883 , one at each end of the platforms . By the 1890s a third island platform had been constructed .

 Melbourne 's two other early central - city stations , Spencer Street and Princes Bridge , opened in 1859 . Spencer Street served the lines to the west of the city , and was isolated from the eastern side of the network until a ground level railway was built connecting it to Flinders Street in 1879 , this track being replaced by the Flinders Street Viaduct in 1889 .

 Princes Bridge was originally separated from Flinders Street , even though it was only on the opposite side of Swanston Street . Once the railway line was extended under the street in 1865 to join the two , Princes Bridge was closed . It was not reopened until April 1879 , and from 1909 slowly became amalgamated into Flinders Street . Federation Square now occupies its site . Up until the 1880s a number of designs for a new station had been prepared , but none ever went any further .

 Current building ( edit )

 Flinders Street Station and the intersection of Flinders & Swanston Streets in 1927 Track 6 at Flinders Street Station

 In 1882 , the government decided to build a new central passenger station to replace the existing ad - hoc construction . A design competition was finally held in 1899 with 17 entries received . The competition was essentially for the detailed design of the station building , since the location of the concourse , entrances , the track and platform layout , the type of platform roofing and even the room layout to some extent was already decided .

 The £ 500 first prize went to railway employees James Fawcett and HPC Ashworth of Fawcett and Ashworth in 1899 , whose design named Green Light was of French Renaissance style , and included a large dome and tall clock tower . The train shed over the platforms was intended to have many arched roofs running north - south , but only an alternative plan depicting impressively high three arched roof ( running east - west ) over the concourse survives .

 Work began in 1900 on the rearrangement of the station tracks , while the final design of the station building was still being worked on . Work on the central pedestrian subway started in 1901 , with the foundations of the main building completed by 1903 .

 The plans were extensively modified by Railway Commissioners in mid-construction in 1904 . The changes included replacing the proposed train shed with individual platform roofs and it was decided not to include a concourse roof . To increase office space a fourth storey was added to the main building , which resulted in the arches above each entrance on Flinders Street being lowered , decreasing their dominance .

 By 1907 , the station had eleven platforms , with the decision made to construct platforms 12 and 13 east of Swanston Street in 1909 . The same year platform 1 was extended eastwards for country traffic . One of the original platform verandas from the Melbourne Terminus building was dismantled and re-erected at Hawthorn station , in the inner - eastern suburbs .

 In 1905 , work began on the station building itself , starting at the west end and progressing towards the main dome . Ballarat builder Peter Rodger was awarded the £ 93,000 contract . The station was originally to have been faced in stone , but this was considered too costly , and red brick with cement render details was used for the main building instead . Grey granite from Harcourt was used for many details on the Flinders street side at ground level `` in view of the importance of this great public work '' . The southern facade of the main building above ground level was constructed of lightweight timber frame clad with zinc sheets scored into large blocks , and painted red , giving the appearance of large bricks . This was done in order to turn what would have been open access balconies inside the train shed into corridors .

 Work on the dome started in 1906 . The structure required heavy foundations as it extended over railway tracks . In May 1908 work was progressing slower than expected , with the expected completion date of April 1909 slipping . Rodger 's contract was terminated in August 1908 . A Royal Commission was appointed in May 1910 , finding that Rodger could be held accountable for the slow progress in 1908 , but he should be compensated for the difficulties before then . The Way and Works Branch of the Victorian Railways took over the project , the station being essentially finished by mid-1909 . The verandah along Flinders Street and the concourse roof and verandah along Swanston Street were not completed until after the official opening in 1910 .

 The building is three levels at the concourse , or Swanston Street , end and four at the lower Elizabeth Street , or platform , end . Numerous shops and lettable spaces were provided , some on the concourse , but especially along the Flinders Street frontage , many at lower than street level , accessed by stairs , creating a fifth / basement level . The top three levels of the main building contain a large number of rooms , particularly along the Flinders Street frontage , mostly intended for railway use , but also many as lettable spaces . Numerous ticket windows were located at each entry , with services such as a restaurant , country booking office , lost luggage and visitors help booth at concourse or platform level . Much of the top floor was purpose built for the then new Victorian Railway Institute , including a library , gym and a lecture hall , later used as a ballroom ; these rooms have been abandoned and decaying for many years . In the 1930s and 1940s the building featured a creche next to the main dome on the top floor for a number of years , with an open - air playground on an adjoining roof . The basement store beside the main entrance has been occupied by a hat store since 1910 . Known as ' City Hatters ' since 1933 .

 The first electric train operated from Flinders Street to Essendon in 1919 , and by 1926 it was the world 's busiest passenger station . To cater for the increasing numbers of passengers , the Degraves Street subway from the station was extended to the north side of Flinders Street in 1954 . In March 1966 Platform One was extended to 2,322 feet ( 708 m ) long .

 Redevelopment plans ( edit )

 View from Flinders Street

 Plans arose at various times from the 1960s to the 1970s for the demolition or redevelopment of the station , as well as the adjacent Jolimont Yard area . The station had fallen into disrepair , having not been cleaned in decades , and covered with advertising hoardings and light up signs .

 In 1962 the Minister for Transport and HKJ Pty Ltd signed an agreement for a £ 30 million redevelopment of the station that would have resulted in the demolition of the clock tower and replacement with an office building up to 60 stories high . Work was to begin in 1964 , but instead the Gas & Fuel Building was constructed over the Princes Bridge station . In 1967 a company purchased the option to lease the space above Flinders Street Station , planning to build a shopping plaza and two office towers , the dome and clock tower being kept as part of the design , but strong opposition saw this project lapse .

 In 1972 Victorian Premier Henry Bolte unveiled another redevelopment plan , to cover 27 acres ( 110,000 m ) of space above the Flinders Street Station and Jolimont Yard for a complex of shops , offices , theatres and other community facilities . A newspaper report of 1974 said that planning was still underway for the $250 million proposal , but by 1975 public perceptions had begun to turn towards retention of the station .

 In 1989 under the John Cain Government an agreement to construct the `` Festival Marketplace '' was signed . Designed by Daryl Jackson architects , it was to be built over the existing platforms in a style sympathetic to the existing station , and be completed by 1992 . Planned to feature shops , restaurants and cafes , the project was abandoned in 1991 after the inability of the financiers to come up with the $205 million required due to the early 1990s recession .

 In November 2011 , the Victorian Government launched a $1 million international design competition to rejuvenate and restore the station . In October 2012 , after receiving 118 submissions , six finalists were selected . The public could vote and the jury 's choice and people 's choice winner were announced on 8 August 2013 . The competition winner was Hassell + Herzog & de Meuron , while the people 's choice winner were University of Melbourne students Eduardo Velasquez , Manuel Pineda and Santiago Medina .

 Refurbishment ( edit )

 View of the station from the west Main concourse The station at night

 The Swanston Street concourse has undergone the most change of any part of the station , and is now three times the depth of the original structure , and only the canopy and roofed area on Swanston Street remains of the original . After the first round of works in 1985 a City of Melbourne councillor , Trevor Huggard , described the renovation as `` vandalism of historically important sections of the station '' , and in 1997 the National Trust of Australia described the additions to the concourse as unsympathetic and detrimental to the station , having `` the character of a modern shopping centre '' .

 In 1982 a $7 million refurbishment was announced by the Ministry of Transport , divided into four phases . Completed by 1984 , the first escalators at the station provided to platforms 2 and 3 replacing the former ramps , and the current public toilets were provided , replacing those over the platforms . New ramps were also provided to platforms which were less steep than those previous , and overhead skylights added to provide better lighting . The television displays used to display next train information had been added to each platform in July 1980 . The main station concourse was tiled and extended westward over the tracks , 16 new shops opened on the concourse , and a restaurant was opened on the southern side along the river . The restaurant opened in October 1985 but closed soon after , the site becoming the `` Clocks on Flinders '' poker machine venue in 1994 . The main steps were embedded with electrical circuits to keep them dry in June 1985 .

 In 1993 the Elizabeth Street pedestrian subway opened at the Southbank end . Conservation work was also carried out to the main building , with the external facade painted in the original colours , exterior feature lighting installed , and the stained glass feature windows above each entry restored . Further changes were made though the late 1990s with the opening of access from the main Swanston Street concourse to platform 1 , platform resurfacing with tactile tiles , and the replacement of the remainder of the main platform access ramps with escalators and elevators .

 The tracks to the east of the station were rebuilt in 1997 / 98 to clear the way for the Federation Square project . Jolimont Yard was eliminated , with $40 million spent to reduce 53 operating lines between Flinders Street and Richmond Station to just 12 . The number of points was also reduced , from 164 to 48 . These changes also saw a reallocation of platform usage at the station , country trains being shifted from platform 1 to platform 10 , and Clifton Hill group trains being shifted from Princes Bridge Station to platform 1 . The platforms at the station had been renumbered in conjunction with the formal merger of Princes Bridge with Flinders Street on 29 June 1980 .

 The final round of changes were completed by 2007 . It included refurbishment of the building roof and concourse foundations , an upgrade of platform 10 with escalators and a lift replacing the ramp , the relocation of all ticket booking offices to the main entrance under the main dome and new LCD Passenger Information Displays installed on the platforms , subways and concourse . In March 2009 an escalator replaced the lift to platform 12 and 13 , with platform 13 also extended westwards into daylight along the alignment of the former platform 11 .

 In 2008 the retail pavilions on the concourse were rebuilt , increasing their area . An investigation of the potential of the abandoned spaces in the station , overseen by a taskforce comprising representatives from Connex , the Committee for Melbourne , Melbourne City Council , Heritage Victoria , was completed the same year , but the conclusions have not been made public . In January 2010 , one of the first announcements by the new Minister for Public Transport was that the government was investigating the refurbishment of the abandoned spaces for `` cultural uses '' .

 In mid-February 2015 Premier Daniel Andrews and Minister for Public Transport Jacinta Allan announced that $100 million will be spent for urgent refurbishment works to upgrade station platforms , entrances , toilets and information displays . By July 2017 , the station had been almost completely repainted in the original 1910 colours . The Premier announced that works were likely to continue for another 18 months .

 Clocks ( edit )

 Clocks at the main entrance

 The distinctive clocks under the main dome that show the departure times of the next trains date back to the 1860s . Sixty Bathgate indicators were purchased from England for use at the Flinders Street , Spencer Street , Richmond and South Yarra stations . Those at Flinders Street were placed into storage when the old station was demolished in 1904 , with 28 placed into the new station in 1910 . They were located at the main entry under the dome , the southern side archway , and the Degraves and Elizabeth Street entrances .

 Manually operated by a railway officer using a long pole , during an 8 - hour period the clocks at the main entrance were changed an average of 900 times . The original indicator clocks were removed from service in 1983 as part of a redevelopment of the station , with their replacement by digital displays planned . An outpouring of public outrage and sentimentality saw the decision reversed within one day . The clocks at the main entrance were altered to automatic operation by computer , but those at the Degraves and Elizabeth Street entrances were replaced by large airport - style split - flap displays .

 A clock tower has also existed at end of Elizabeth Street since 1883 . The first clock was known as the ' Water Tower Clock ' , after a wooden framed water tower erected on the site in 1853 . This clock remained in place until 1905 when work begun on the new station , the clocktower being moved to outside Princes Bridge station . In 1911 it was moved to Spencer Street station , where it remained until the station redevelopment of 1967 . Sold to a private collector , it was returned to public ownership and in 1999 was put on display at the Scienceworks Museum , Spotswood . It was returned to Southern Cross station in 2014 .

 Today 's Elizabeth Street clock tower was constructed between August 1906 and November 1907 , the clock being built by Melbourne clockmaker F Ziegeler to an English design . Originally needed to be wound every day , it is now electrically operated .

 Signal boxes ( edit )

 Flinders Street `` A '' signal box circa 1913

 The first signal boxes were opened at the station in 1883 , one at each end of the platforms . By the 1890s a third island platform had been constructed . From the 1900s until 1983 five signal boxes controlled traffic into Flinders Street Station . Later replaced by Metrol , four of them were located to the west in Jolimont Yard .

 Flinders Street A was located at the western end of Flinders Street between the lines to St Kilda / Port Melbourne and Spencer Street , and controlled all traffic from the west . Constructed of brick it was of `` traditional '' Victorian Railways design , it had two mechanical lever frames of equal size , totalling 280 levers . The mechanical signals were decommissioned in October 1979 . The signal box has been burnt twice , the second time being in 2002 , destroying the timber and glass superstructure and slate roof . In 2009 it is now being rebuilt as Signal , a youth arts centre funded by the City of Melbourne .

 Flinders Street B was located at the Richmond end of Flinders Street platform 8 / 9 and controlled the southern tracks into and out of the station from Jolimont Yard . Constructed of brick it was of traditional Victorian Railways design , and was demolished when the Federation Square Deck was built .

 Flinders Street C was located beyond the Richmond end of Flinders Street platform 4 / 5 and controlled the northern tracks into and out of the station from the yard . Constructed of brick it was of ' traditional ' Victorian Railways design , and was demolished when the Federation Square Deck was built .

 Flinders Street D was located at the Richmond end of the Princes Bridge station island platform ( later renumber to Flinders Street 15 / 16 ) . Of utilitarian brick construction it remains in place today just outside the Federation Square Deck , but is unused as a signal box .

 Flinders Street E was located at Richmond Junction , and controlled the junction as well as access into the Richmond end of the stabling sidings . Of utilitarian brick construction it remains in place today underneath the William Barak Bridge , but is unused as a signal box .

 Platforms ( edit )

 Horatio Gates Spafford ( October 20 , 1828 , Troy , New York -- October 16 , 1888 , Jerusalem ) was a prominent American lawyer and Presbyterian church elder . He is best known for penning the Christian hymn It Is Well With My Soul , following a family tragedy in which his four daughters died aboard the S.S. Ville du Havre on a transatlantic voyage .

 Life ( edit )

 Anna Spafford

 He was the son of Gazetteer author Horatio Gates Spafford and Elizabeth Clark Hewitt Spafford .

 On September 5 , 1861 , he married Anna Larsen of Stavanger , Norway , in Chicago . The Spaffords were well known in 1860s Chicago . He was a prominent lawyer and a senior partner in a large and thriving law firm .

 The Spaffords were also prominent supporters and close friends of evangelist Dwight L. Moody .

 Spafford invested in real estate north of an expanding Chicago in the spring of 1871 . When the Great Fire of Chicago reduced the city to ashes in October of that same year , it also destroyed most of Spafford 's sizable investment .

 The wreck of the Ville du Havre ( edit )

 Scarlet fever killed his four - year - old son . Two years later , in 1873 , Spafford decided his family should take a holiday somewhere in Europe , and chose England knowing that his friend D.L. Moody would be preaching there in the fall . He was delayed because of business , so he sent his family ahead : his wife and their four children , daughters eleven - year - old Anna `` Annie '' , nine - year - old Margaret Lee `` Maggie '' , five - year - old Elizabeth `` Bessie '' , and two - year - old Tanetta .

 On November 22 , 1873 , while crossing the Atlantic on the steamship Ville du Havre , their ship was struck by an iron sailing vessel and 226 people lost their lives , including all four of Spafford 's daughters . Only his wife , Anna Spafford , survived the tragedy . Upon arriving in England , she sent a telegram to Spafford beginning `` Saved alone . '' Spafford then sailed to England , going over the location of his daughters ' deaths . According to Bertha Spafford Vester , a daughter born after the tragedy , Spafford wrote `` It Is Well with My Soul '' on this journey .

 It is well with my soul lyrics ( edit )

 The original manuscript has only four verses , but Spafford 's daughter states how later another verse ( the fourth in order below ) was added and the last line of the original was slightly modified . The music , written by Philip Bliss , was named after the ship on which Spafford 's daughters died , Ville du Havre .

 When peace , like a river , attendeth my way , When sorrows like sea billows roll ; Whatever my lot , Thou hast taught me to say , It is well , it is well with my soul . ( Refrain :) It is well ( it is well ) , with my soul ( with my soul ) , It is well , it is well with my soul . Though Satan should buffet , though trials should come , Let this blest assurance control , That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate , And hath shed His own blood for my soul . ( Refrain ) My sin , oh the bliss of this glorious thought ! My sin , not in part but the whole , Is nailed to His cross , and I bear it no more , Praise the Lord , praise the Lord , O my soul ! ( Refrain ) For me , be it Christ , be it Christ hence to live : If Jordan above me shall roll , No pain shall be mine , for in death as in life Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul . ( Refrain ) And Lord haste the day , when the faith shall be sight , The clouds be rolled back as a scroll ; The trump shall resound , and the Lord shall descend , Even so , it is well with my soul . ( Refrain )

 Later years ( edit )

 Following the sinking of the Ville du Havre , Anna gave birth to three more children . On February 11 , 1880 , their son , Horatio Goertner Spafford , died at the age of three , of scarlet fever . Their daughters were Bertha Hedges Spafford ( born March 24 , 1878 ) and Grace Spafford ( born January 18 , 1881 ) . After the ordeal at sea , Anna and Horatio Spafford became religious outsiders . They left their Presbyterian congregation and held faith - based prayer meetings in their own home . Their Messianic sect was dubbed `` the Overcomers '' by the American press .

 In August 1881 , the Spaffords set out for Jerusalem as a party of thirteen adults and three children and set up the American Colony . Colony members , later joined by Swedish Christians , engaged in philanthropic work amongst the people of Jerusalem regardless of their religious affiliation and without proselytizing motives -- thereby gaining the trust of the local Muslim , Jewish , and Christian communities .

 In Jerusalem Horatio and Anna Spafford adopted teenager Jacob Eliahu , then Jacob Spafford ( 1864 -- 1932 ) , born in Ramallah into a Turkish Jewish family , who as a schoolboy , discovered by chance the Siloam inscription .

 Death ( edit )

 Four days shy of his 60th birthday , Spafford died on October 16 , 1888 , of malaria , and was buried in Mount Zion Cemetery , Jerusalem .

 Legacy ( edit )

 During and immediately after World War I , the American Colony played a critical role in supporting the Muslim , Jewish , and Christian communities of Jerusalem through the great suffering and deprivations of the Eastern front and the Armenian and Assyrian Genocides . The American Colony did this by running soup kitchens , hospitals , orphanages and other charitable ventures .

 Length :

 11.1 mi ( 17.9 km )

The road is maintained by the Lee County DOT , except for the I - 75 interchange , which is maintained by Florida DOT .

 History

 It originally was a two - lane rural road connecting the Tamiami Trail to agricultural and industrial land owned by the Atlantic Land and Improvement Company ( later known as Alico , Inc. , the road 's namesake ) in east Lee County . In 1973 , a railroad spur was built along Alico Road to serve mines on Alico 's land , although the easternmost 3.5 miles of it were removed in 1994 .

 Alico Road has since become a major commuter thoroughfare . In the mid to late 2000s it was widened to six lanes , and the interchange with I - 75 was rebuilt as a partial cloverleaf interchange ( it was originally a folded diamond due to the railroad ) . In 2007 , the west end and the terminus at US 41 was realigned slightly north in preparation for the construction of the SR 739 extension and interchange ( which was built in 2012 ) .

 County Road 863

 Location :

 Fort Myers

 Length :

 1.8 mi ( 2.9 km )

 County Road 863 is the county - controlled segment of Fowler Street south of Metro Parkway within the city limits of Fort Myers . North of here , Fowler is designated State Road 739 , which continues south along Metro Parkway .

 The unsigned designation follows Fowler Street from Metro Parkway south and intersects State Road 884 ( Colonial Boulevard ) . It then turns southwest and winds around one of the runways at Page Field before terminating at US 41 .

 Fowler Street previously terminated at North Airport Road at the entrance to the former passenger terminal at Page Field ( which ceased operations in 1983 when commercial air service was relocated to Southwest Florida International Airport ) . In the mid 1990s , Fowler Street was realigned around Page Field and extended to connect directly to US 41 at Boy Scout Drive ( which continues a short distance to Summerlin Road ( CR 869 ) ) .

 Prior to the fall of 2015 , CR 863 's designation ended at Hanson Street ( which previously carried the SR 739 designation to Metro Parkway 's former alignment ) .

 Main article : Florida State Road 865

 County Road 865

 Location :

 Bonita Springs -- Fort Myers Beach , Iona -- Tice

 Length :

 35.9 mi ( 57.8 km )

 County Road 865 exists in three sections . The southernmost section begins in Bonita Springs where it is known as Bonita Beach Road , the main east - west route through Bonita Springs . When it reaches the Gulf of Mexico near Barefoot Beach , it turns north along Hickory Boulevard . It becomes Estero Boulevard as it crosses the Bonita Beach Causeway onto Fort Myers Beach . This section ends at the north end of Fort Myers Beach at SR 865 just south of the Matanzas Pass Bridge .

 The central section travels along Gladiolus Drive through Iona , Harlem Heights , and Biggar and passes Lakes Regional Park before ending at US 41 ( Tamiami Trail ). ,

 The northern section runs along Ben C. Pratt Six Mile Cypress Parkway and Ortiz Avenue from SR 739 to SR 80 in Tice .

 The segments were once part of a continuous SR 865 and Ortiz Avenue was part of SR 80B .

 County Road 867 ( edit )

 Main article : McGregor Boulevard

 County Road 867

 Location :

 Punta Rassa -- Iona

 Length :

 4.8 mi ( 7.7 km )

 County Road 867 is McGregor Boulevard from the Sanibel Causeway in Punta Rassa to SR 867 in Iona .

 The road was formerly known as SR 867 , a designation which still exits on a section of McGregor Boulevard from Iona to McGregor .

 County Road 867A ( edit )

 Main article : McGregor Boulevard § County Road 867A

 County Road 867A

 Location :

 Villas -- Cape Coral and North Fort Myers

 Length :

 15.2 mi ( 24.5 km )

 County Road 867A is the main north - south route through Cape Coral , connecting it with North Fort Myers and South Fort Myers .

 It begins just south of Fort Myers at US 41 near Villas . From here , it is known as College Parkway , named for its proximity to Florida SouthWestern State College ( originally Edison Community College ) .

 After an interchange with McGregor Boulevard ( SR 867 ) , CR 867A crosses the Cape Coral Bridge , CR 867A continues as Cape Coral Parkway for 0.7 miles ( 1.1 km ) . Up to this point , it is unsigned , though a part of College Parkway near Summerlin Road is signed as CR 882 . At Cape Coral Parkway 's interchange with Del Prado Boulevard , the route turns north along the street , and is first signed as CR 867A here . The route continues north through much of Cape Coral . Veterans Parkway is one of Cape Coral 's major east -- west routes , and it travels into Fort Myers via the Midpoint Memorial Bridge . Del Prado Boulevard continues northward to Pine Island Road ( SR 78 ) .

 North of Pine Island Road , addresses on Del Prado Boulevard have the attached `` North '' suffix to the name of the road ; south of Pine Island Road uses `` South . '' After Pine Island Road , Del Prado Boulevard continues north as a city street , though the city of Cape Coral maintains the CR 867A designation . It intersects Diplomat Parkway and the Kismet Parkway , before intersecting with US 41 ( Tamiami Trail ) at the northern Cape Coral city limits . The extension into North Fort Myers was built in the 1990s .

 From US 41 , Del Prado Boulevard once again becomes a county road and continues east along the northern edge of North Fort Myers . Just past the Prairie Pines Preserve , it briefly becomes Mellow Drive before it terminates at Slater Road . Future plans call for Del Prado Boulevard to be extended north from Mellow Drive in North Fort Myers around the Prairie Pines Preserve to Interstate 75 with a new interchange near the Lee - Charlotte County border .

 Formerly State Road 867A between McGregor Boulevard and Pine Island Road , it became a major route when the Cape Coral Bridge opened in 1964 .

 County Road 869 ( edit )

 County Road 869

 Location :

 Iona -- Fort Myers

 Length :

 11.7 mi ( 18.8 km )

 County Road 869 is the designation for Summerlin Road which runs from CR 867 ( McGregor Boulevard ) in Iona east and north to CR 884 ( Colonial Boulevard ) in Fort Myers . It is the main route connecting Fort Myers with the islands of Fort Myers Beach , Sanibel and Captiva . The road is named for Jacob Summerlin , a prominent Punta Rassa cattleman .

 Built in the early 1980s , Summerlin Road was planned to be part of State Road 869 ( a designation which has since been reused for the Sawgrass Expressway near Fort Lauderdale ) , but the road was never added to the state highway system since it turned over to Lee County before it opened . It was originally intended to be an alternative to McGregor Boulevard ( SR 867 ) as a limited - access road , but development along the route has since hindered that intent . To better handle increasing traffic , the intersection with San Carlos Bouelvard ( SR 865 ) was upgraded to an interchange in 2007 along with being widened to six lanes . Elevated interchange ramps were also added at the Gladiolus Drive ( CR 865 ) intersection at the same time . The College Parkway ( CR 867A ) intersection was upgraded to an interchange in 2011 along with further widening .

 South of Fort Myers , Summerlin Road roughly follows the route of the abandoned Punta Rassa branch of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad , which was removed in 1952 . It runs along the former railroad corridor from just north of Gladiolus Drive to Bass Road .

 County Road 876

 Location :

 McGregor -- Fort Myers Shores

 Length :

 23.0 mi ( 37.0 km )

 County Road 876 serves as a major east - west thoroughfare through Lee County just south of Fort Myers city limits before becoming a north - south route through Lehigh Acres and Buckingham . Beginning at SR 867 in McGregor , CR 876 travels east along Cypress Lake Drive through Cypress Lake to U.S. Route 41 ( Tamiami Trail ) . It continues east of US 41 as Daniels Parkway towards Interstate 75 and Southwest Florida International Airport . East of Gateway , CR 876 intersects State Road 82 , where it turns north and continues as Gunnery Road through Lehigh Acres before merging with Buckingham Road . Buckingham Road carries CR 876 north through Buckingham to its terminus with SR 80 in Fort Myers Shores .

 County Road 881 ( edit )

 County Road 881

 Location :

 Bonita Springs -- Three Oaks

 Length :

 13.6 mi ( 21.9 km )

 County Road 881 exists just west of Interstate 75 from the Collier County line in Bonita Springs to CR 840 ( Alico Road ) in Three Oaks . Locally , it is known as Three Oaks Parkway north of Coconut Road in Estero , and Imperial Parkway south of this point . The road continues past its southern terminus into Collier County as County Road 881 , which is known as Livingston Road . The entire route is controlled by Lee County , except for the short segment between Bonita Beach Road and East Terry Street which is controlled by the city of Bonita Springs ( though the city maintains the CR 881 designation ) .

 The corridor of CR 881 in Lee County was completed in early 2008 with the opening of Imperial Parkway between Coconut Road in Estero and East Terry Street in Bonita Springs . This made CR 881 a third major thoroughfare connecting Lee and Collier Counties along with U.S. Route 41 and Interstate 75 .

 Lee County plans to eventually extend Three Oaks Parkway north of its current terminus to Daniels Parkway ( CR 876 ) . A short segment of the extension was built by a private developer in the early 2010s . The rest of the extension , which would parallel Interstate 75 and connect to Daniels Parkway via Fiddlesticks Boulevard , is set to be completed around 2020 .

 Main article : Florida State Road 884

 County Road 884

 Location :

 Cape Coral -- Fort Myers and Fort Myers -- Alva

 Length :

 32.5 mi ( 52.3 km )

 County Road 884 exists in two sections . The western section runs through Cape Coral along the Veterans Parkway and the Midpoint Bridge from SR 78 / CR 78 ( Pine Island Road ) / CR 765 ( Burnt Store Road ) in Cape Coral to SR 884 / US 41 ( Cleveland Avenue ) in Fort Myers . The eastern section travels through Lehigh Acres along Colonial , Lee , Leeland Heights , and Joel Boulevards from SR 884 / Dynasty Drive in Fort Myers to SR 80 in Alva .

 The eastern segment came into existence in the early 1980s when Colonial Boulevard ( SR 884 ) was extended from I - 75 to connect with State Road 82 at Lee Boulevard . Lee Boulevard was previously State Road 82B while Leeland Heights and Joel Boulevards were part of State Road 873 ( a designation which also continued south down Alabama Road ) .

 The western segment , which previously ended at State Road 867 ( McGregor Boulevard ) , was extended into Cape Coral in 1997 upon the completion of the Midpoint Memorial Bridge and Veterans Parkway .

 County Road 885 ( edit )

 County Road 885

 Location :

 Estero -- Fort Myers

 Length :

 13.00 mi ( 20.92 km )

 County Road 885 exists just east of Interstate 75 from CR 850 ( Corkscrew Road ) in Estero to CR 884 ( Colonial Boulevard ) in Fort Myers . As a major north - south corridor , it provides access to Florida Gulf Coast University , Gulf Coast Town Center , and Southwest Florida International Airport . It is known as Treeline Avenue north of the entrance to Southwest Florida International Airport , and Ben Hill Griffin Parkway south of it .

 History

 The first major segment of CR 885 to be completed was Ben Hill Griffin Parkway between Alico and Corkscrew Roads . It was named for Ben Hill Griffin , Jr. , former chairman of Alico Inc. , whose land was partially donated by Griffin 's son Ben Hill Griffin III to the state for the construction of Florida Gulf Coast University . Ben Hill Griffin Parkway was completed by 1997 in conjunction with the opening of the university , as it was the main access road .

 Treeline Avenue , which originally was a short local road off Daniels Parkway , was extended south and connected to Ben Hill Griffin Parkway in early 2005 in conjunction with the opening of the current terminal at Southwest Florida International Airport . Treeline Avenue was later extended to Colonial Boulevard in 2006 .
