Roosevelt Boulevard is a six lane highway on the west side of Jacksonville, Florida. It takes US 17 and SR 15, from the Duval county line just south Interstate 295, until its northern end at Willow Branch Avenue, with the road itself becoming one of the incarnations of College Street in the Riverside area of Jacksonville.
Route description
Roosevelt Boulevard is one of two roads that connect Orange Park and urban Jacksonville, passing through Yukon and Venetia, Ortega, Lake Shore and Fairfax, Riverside-Avondale and Murray Hill neighborhoods along its path to central Jacksonville (Blanding Boulevard State Road 21 through Wesconnett, being the other).
Traveling north from Orange Park, Florida, in Clay County, where U.S. 17/SR 15 is known as Park Avenue, this route takes the name of Roosevelt Boulevard entering Jacksonville and Duval County, intersecting with Interstate 295 (SR 9A) just north of the Clay/Duval county line. The highway intersects east-west connector Collins Road and continues along the east edge of a railroad, the CSX A line for most of its length. Immediately north of Collins Road, the highway serves as the western border of Naval Air Station Jacksonville along the St. Johns River, with three gates, though two are rarely used. The main gate at Yorktown, features a Blue Angel at the gates. To the west of NAS Jacksonville is Fowler Park, on the shores of the Ortega River and in the Yukon section of Jacksonville.
U.S. Route 1 (US 1) is a major north–south U.S. Highway, extending from the Florida Keys in the south to the Canadian border in the north. In the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, US 1 runs for 81 miles (130km) from the Maryland state line near Oxford to the New Jersey state line near Trenton, through the southeastern portion of the state. The route runs southwest to northeast, and serves as a major arterial road for many of the suburbs in the Delaware Valley area. South of Philadelphia, the road mostly follows the alignment of the old Baltimore Pike. Within Philadelphia, it mostly follows Roosevelt Boulevard.
Route description
Maryland to Interstate 476
US 1 enters Pennsylvania from Maryland in West Nottingham Township, Chester County, heading northeast as a two-lane undivided road that soon widens into a four-lane divided highway. The road curves north and runs through fields and woods with some development, becoming a four-lane freeway that is called the John H. Ware III Memorial Highway. The route runs through rural land with some nearby homes and commercial development, coming to an interchange with PA 272 west of the community of Nottingham. From here, US 1 curves to the northeast and continues into East Nottingham Township, passing through a mix of farmland and woodland with some residences. The freeway skirts into the western portion of the borough of Oxford and reaches a diamond interchange with PA 472 that serves the borough. The route runs through more rural areas with some nearby development and enters Lower Oxford Township, where it bends to the east-northeast and comes to an interchange with PA 10 that also provides access to Oxford. US 1 continues through farm fields and woods and crosses into Upper Oxford Township, where it comes to the PA 896 exit.
