Florida State Road 434 - Route Description

Route Description

In Seminole County, official maps show SR 434 as being named Sanlando Springs Road through Longwood and Sanford-Oviedo Road through Winter Springs. A 1995 United States Geological Survey map of Forest City calls SR 434 Forest City Palm Springs Road north of its intersection with SR 436. Despite this it is virtually unheard of for a local resident to refer to the road as such with most not even aware of the names. The road is referred to locally as simply State Road 434, Highway 434, Route 434 or just as 434.

SR 434 is called Alafaya Trail from Mitchell Hammock Road in Oviedo, continuing south into Orange County, to its end at SR 50 (Colonial Drive). Alafaya Trail continues south of Colonial Drive without the SR 434 designation.

In the 1883 plat of Forest City Orange Park, a section of what is now SR 434 south of its intersection with SR 436 was named Bay Street.
