It connects George Jenkins Boulevard (west of downtown) to U.S. Highway 98 (US 98) and SR 600 (Bartow Road and Main Street) east of downtown, allowing traffic to bypass downtown.
History
Script error: No such module "Unsubst". SR 548 began construction in 2002 and opened in 2004. In 2005 it was stalled by budget cuts only for construction to resume in 2006, with a scaled back design that excluded the originally proposed bridge over SR 539 (Kathleen Road) east of the bridge over Lakeland Junction.[1][2]
Second phase
SR 548 was extended west across SR 563 (Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue) and SR 539 (Kathleen Road) terminating at George Jenkins Boulevard west of downtown. This provides a full east–west bypass to supplement US 92 (Memorial Boulevard) and SR 400 (Interstate 4).[3]
