State Road 451 (SR 451) is a 1.9 miles (3.1 km) limited-access toll road connecting State Road 414 (Apopka Expressway) and State Road 429 (Western Expressway) north to U.S. Highway 441 (State Road 500/Orange Blossom Trail). The entire route is within Apopka.
Route description
The route begins at a large junction with SR 414 and SR 429, continuing two miles (3.2 km) as north-south route the route then forms an at-grade intersection with U.S Highway 441 Orange Blossom Trail.The route then continues 0.85 miles to its northern terminus an at-grade intersection with Old Dixie Highway. The road then continues north as Vick road .[2]
The shortest numbered route within the CFX system, SR 451 is effectively a spur route of SR 429. While the short SR 451 itself has no toll facilities, it is not possible to drive the route (excluding the future Vick Road Extension) without paying tolls either on SR 414 or SR 429.
History
The route now designated as SR 451 was formerly SR 429. To allow the extension of SR 429 to its new terminus on US 441 as part of the Wekiva Parkway project, the road now known as SR 451 had to be given a new designation. In 2012, OOCEA (predecessor to CFX) announced the new designation, which took effect in January 2013.[3]
Exit list
The entire route is in Apopka, Orange County.
