[4] County Road 610 (CR 610) is University Parkway between US 41 and US 301 on the north side of Sarasota near Sarasota–Bradenton International Airport.
[2] County Road 683 (CR 683) runs along portions of Tuttle Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Way just northeast of Sarasota.
It runs along Tuttle Avenue from SR 780 (Fruitville Road) north for 1.5 miles to Martin Luther King Jr. Way.
Both Tuttle Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Way continue beyond the limits of CR 683 without designations.
The full route of Bradenton Road and 15th Street in Manatee County was the original alignment of SR 683.
[11] Bradenton Road's connection with 15th Street/301 Boulevard (previously US 301/SR 683) to the north in Manatee County has since been severed due to extensions of the airport's Runway 14/32.
Beyond Interstate 75, Laurel Road continues east through residential areas before intersecting Jacaranda Boulevard (CR 765).
[15] When Interstate 75 opened through Sarasota County in 1981, Laurel Road initially did not have an interchange with the new freeway.
The crossing of the two roadways was upgraded to a full interchange in 1996 and Laurel Road was widened to four lanes.
It continues north on a winding route crossing Alligator Creek into Venice Gardens.
North of Alligator Creek, it passes residential communities and the Jacaranda West Country Club.
[18] The road was built from Venice Avenue north to Interstate 75 when I-75 opened in Sarasota County in 1981.
[19] Jacaranda Boulevard was extended south from Alligator Creek to its current southern terminus at Englewood Road (SR 776) in 1987.
CR 772 terminates at Jacaranda Boulevard, but Venice Avenue continues east without a designation another three miles to the Myakka River.
[25] Venice Avenue was historically two separate roadways on either side of present-day US 41 (which was the southern end of Albee Farm Road before US 41 was rerouted to its current alignment in 1965).
[2] Beneva Road begins at an intersection with US 41 near the Sarasota Square Mall on the southeast side of Gulf Gate Estates.
It heads north along the eastern edge of Gulf Gate Estates and intersects SR 72 (Clark Road).
As it passes Red Bug Slough Preserve, Beneva Road enters South Gate Ridge.
Beneva Road enters Sarasota city limits right after crossing the Legacy Trail.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers convinced Sarasota County to build the first bridge since they were developing the north end of Manasota Key.
[36] The original bridge was replaced due to its age as well as the need for a larger structure since Lemon Bay had become part of the Intracoastal Waterway.
[2] CR 778 begins at University Parkway on the east edge of Sarasota city limits.
In the early 1990s, University Parkway (CR 610) was extended west to Desoto Road near Sarasota–Bradenton International Airport.
