The HOV flyover rises to 94 feet through the Golden Glades Interchange. It opened to traffic in January 1995. 04/01/14
The next sign bridge further delineates the assignments for each route by lane. The far right lane serves the Palmetto Expressway (SR 826) west to Hialeah and Florida's Turnpike north to Orlando, while the number three lane connects to U.S. 441 south for North Miami and SR 9 south to Opa-Locka as well as SR 826 (North Miami Beach Boulevard) eastbound. 04/01/14

Interstate 95 south carries six overall lanes with four general purposes lanes and two HOT lanes to the left. 03/04/14
Interstate 95 spans Biscayne Canal 0.75 miles ahead of Exit 10 B with SR 916. SR 916 crosses I-95 along a one way couplet on Opa-Locka Boulevard west and NW 135th Street east in North Miami. 03/04/14
A half diamond interchange adds traffic to I-95 south from NW 151st Street after this shield assembly. 04/01/14
Southbound at the final ingress point to the 95 Express Lanes leading south to Downtown Miami. 03/04/14
The 95 Express Lanes provide a high speed route southward to Downtown Miami. Local traffic remains in the four general travel lanes as the HOT lanes provide no additional egress points until the Airport Expressway. 03/04/14

Beginning at Exit 10 A in a quarter mile, SR 922 (NW 125th Street) heads east 5.55 miles to SR A1A at Surfside. SR 932 meets I-95 in another mile between Pinewood Park and Miami Shores. 03/04/14
The entrance ramp from SR 916 forms a fifth southbound general travel lane for I-95 to the diamond interchange (Exit 10 A) with NW 125th Street and SR 922 east. 03/04/14
There is no direct access from I-95 south to SR 924, NE 119th Street west to the tolled Gratigny Parkway and Interstate 75 north, instead SR 922 west to U.S. 441 (NW 7th Avenue) south makes that connection. SR 922 east uses the tolled Broad Causeway to cross Biscayne Bay to Bay Harbour Islands and Bal Harbour. 03/04/14
Interstate 95 stays west of Miami Shores and El Portal, with Exits 8 B and 8 A connecting the freeway to both incorporated communities. 03/04/14
SR 932 (NW 103rd Street) meets Interstate 95 at a diamond interchange (Exit 8 B) just south of the NW 111th Street overpass. U.S. 441 parallels just one block to the west. 03/04/14
SR 932 travels west from Exit 8 B as a divided arterial along NW 103rd Street toward Hialeah, where it becomes 49th Street. East of I-95, SR 932 enters Miami Shores and ends at SR 915 near the Miami Shores Country Club. 03/04/14

NW 95th Street (Rev. Dr. A. Jackson, Jr. Boulevard) links Interstate 95 with the Miami Shores business district at SR 915. West from Exit 8 A, the street crosses Little River Canal en route to West Little River and SR 9 (NW 27th Avenue). 03/04/14
The next exit is with SR 934, which travels along the couplet of 81st Street/79th Street across northern Miami. 03/04/14
East from Miami, SR 934 crosses Biscayne Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway along J.F. Kennedy Causeway en route to Pelican Harbor Park, North Bay Village, and Normandy Shores in Miami Beach (SR A1A). 03/04/14
