U.S. ROUTE 441


'U.S. Highway 441' is a spur route of US Highway 41. It currently runs for 939 miles (1,511 km) from Lake City, Tennessee at US Highway 25W, to Miami, Florida. It passes through the states of Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Some of the cities along it are Knoxville, Franklin, Athens, Gainesville, Ocala, Orlando and Miami. It also crosses the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where it meets the southwestern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway, and where no trucks or other commercial traffic are allowed.
In Florida, where signs for U.S. Highways formerly had different colors for each highway (until the state was forced by the federal government to conform to standards that required consistent black-and-white signs), the "shield" for US 441 was brown.

Concurrencies

Concurrencies include SR 80, US 98, and US 192. The section from West Palm Beach to Miami is also known as SR 7, but is not signed as such in Miami-Dade or Broward counties (although the local street name for it is "State Road 7" in some towns); SR 7 continues north beyond where US 441 turns west, and is signed for this stretch.
Terminus

Although the southern terminus of US 441 is US 41 in Miami, the current, temporary terminus has been the Miami River since early 2007, when the Florida Department of Transportation demolished the NW 7th Avenue Bridge over which the highway passed. The replacement bridge will not be finished until 2011.[1]

Trivia

US 441 is mentioned in Tom Petty's song "American Girl". Petty grew up in Gainesville, Florida, and the route runs through the middle of town bordering the east side of the University of Florida. The lyrics state:

::''"Well it was kinda cold that night''
::''She stood alone on her balcony.''
::''Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by''
::''Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach"''
