Sligh Avenue - Former State Road 598
Several sections of Sligh Avenue exist across Tampa and Hillsborough County, with the most traveled portion connecting the Egypt Lake-Leto community with the Oak Grove, Riverbend and Old Seminole Heights neighborhoods in Tampa. Sligh Avenue was formerly a part of State Road 598 from U.S. 92 (Dale Mabry Highway) to U.S. 41 (Nebraska Avenue) in the city of Tampa.
Sligh Avenue travels a short distance west from U.S. 41 (Nebraska Avenue) to meet Interstate 275 at a diamond interchange.
