Route Description
The road begins at the southern terminus of Interstate 75 at the Palmetto Expressway at the border between Miami Lakes and Hialeah. The road heads east as an eight lane expressway through Hialeah's residential areas and through the first of two $0.50 toll gantries ($0.65 for toll-by-plate users). Following the gantry, the expressway has its first interchange with NW 57th Avenue/Red Road, giving access to Opa-Locka Airport just north of the toll road. SR 924 then curves southeast, leaving Hialeah and heading towards the second $.50 toll gantry ($.65 for toll-by-plate users) in Opa-Locka, followed by an interchange with SR 953 before the expressway ends at NW 32nd Street, becoming NW 119th Street, a divided surface street heading due east. The road then becomes a mix of commercial and residential areas as it crosses SR 9, then reaching North Miami, intersecting with U.S. Route 441/SR 7, followed by Interstate 95, becoming a residential street before ending at SR 909.

“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”

“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
