Florida State Road 710

Signed east-west, the 61-mile-long State Road 710 is a northwest-southeast route connecting SR 70 near Cypress Quarters three miles from the northern tip of Lake Okeechobee in south central Florida to U.S. Route 1 in Riviera Beach. Most of the route is also known as Bee Line Highway (not to be confused with the former Bee Line Expressway, a toll road serving central Florida between Orlando and Cape Canaveral). The name is apt, for it parallels the railroad tracks maintained by Seaboard Coast Line and used by Amtrak… and doesn’t have a turn or curve in the 48 miles southeast of Sherman, except for a small bend northwest of North Palm Beach County General Aviation Airport. In Riviera Beach, an “eastbound” motorist traveling along SR 710 would turn left to the east and travel along Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard (Eighth Street) to Federal Highway (US 1).

Bee Line Highway traverses the woodlands and wetlands north and east of Lake Okeechobee, with an occasional farm near its northwestern end. It is a popular truck route that is used as an alternative to US 441/US 98/SR 700. In addition to the cities at its termini and Sherman, Indiantown (near the St. Lucie Canal and midway along the Bee Line stretch) and West Palm Beach have the street within their city limits.

For a year in the 1940s, Bee Line Highway was designated State Road 66 before the number was changed to 710.
