The Overseas Highway is a 113-mile (181.9 km) highway carrying U.S. Route 1 (US 1) through the Florida Keys to Key West. Large parts of it were built on the former right-of-way of the Overseas Railroad, the Key West Extension of the Florida East Coast Railway. Completed in 1912, the Overseas Railroad was heavily damaged and partially destroyed in the 1935 Labor Day hurricane. The Florida East Coast Railway was financially unable to rebuild the destroyed sections, so the roadbed and remaining bridges were sold to the state of Florida for $640,000.

  • Der Overseas Highway ist der südlichste Abschnitt des U.S. Highways 1 in Florida, USA. Der 205 Kilometer lange Highway verbindet 40 Inseln der Florida Keys miteinander und reicht von Homestead bis nach Key West. Der Highway ist die einzige Landverbindung zwischen den Florida Keys und dem Festland der USA und im Falle eines Hurrikans auch die einzige Fluchtroute für die Einwohner und Touristen. (de)

  • オーバーシーズ・ハイウェイ(Overseas Highway、海上高速道路の意味)はフロリダキーズを縦断する181.9キロメートル の幹線道路であり、国道1号線 (US 1)の最南端区間となっている。その大半は元の即ち「キーウェスト延長線」の であった。1912年に完成したオーバーシーズ鉄道は1935年ので大きな被害を受け、一部が破壊された。フロリダ・イーストコースト鉄道は破壊された部分の再建を財務的理由で断念し、路盤 (roadbed) および破壊を免れた複数の橋はフロリダ州に64万ドルで売却された。 1950年代以降、オーバーシーズハイウェイはマイアミとキーウェストを結ぶ主要海岸幹線道路へと改装され、旅行者にとっては熱帯サバンナ環境を通り抜けて、アメリカ本土では最大規模のへアクセスできるエキゾチックな道路となっている。クロコダイルや (Key Deer) のような多くの熱帯性の動物がフロリダキーズの熱帯諸島には生息している。 (ja)

  • De Overseas Highway is een 205 kilometer lange snelweg in de Amerikaanse staat Florida. De snelweg maakt deel uit van de U.S. Route 1 die van het noordoosten van de Verenigde Staten loopt tot het zuidoosten. De snelweg verbindt het vasteland van Florida met onder meer met Key Largo en Key West, die deel uitmaken van de Florida Keys. Delen van de weg zijn gebouwd op restanten van een voormalige spoorlijn, de Overseas Railroad. Deze spoorlijn was grotendeels verwoest door een orkaan in 1935. Doordat de spoorbeheerder Florida East Coast Railway onvoldoende geld had om de spoorverbinding op te bouwen, werden de restanten verkocht voor $640.000 aan de staat Florida. (nl)
