Route Description
The northernmost eight miles (13 km) of SR 100 are signed (north–south) as US 129. For three miles (5 km) in Jasper, it merges with US 41 (SR 25) before separating from US 129 (which has the hidden Florida Department of Transportation designation SR 51 between the split and Live Oak). Southeast of the split, SR 100 signage can be seen alongside the road, beside US 41 signs (hidden SR 25) north of Lake City and beside US 90 signs (hidden SR 10) along a two-mile-long stretch of East Duval Street in Lake City.
East of Lake City, SR 100 is signed east–west as it continues along a northwest-southeast pathway toward the Atlantic Ocean, serving, amongst other municipalities, Lake Butler, Starke, Keystone Heights, and Putnam Hall before merging with US 17 (hidden SR 15) on Reid Street in Palatka, just west of their bridge crossing at St. Johns River.
State Road 100 separates from US 17/SR 15 in San Mateo and continues in a more easterly direction through Shell Bluff Landing, Bimini, Bunnell (where SR 100 overlaps U.S. Route 1/SR 5 for a mile) and Palm Coast before it reaches SR A1A on the Atlantic coast.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
