Interstate 195 (I-195) is a Template:Convert auxiliary Interstate Highway connecting I-95, its parent route, in the west with Miami Beach in the east. It crosses Biscayne Bay by traveling over the Julia Tuttle Causeway. The causeway is named after Miami founder Julia Tuttle.

It is part of the longer State Road 112 (SR 112), which continues to the west as the Airport Expressway and to the east as Arthur Godfrey Road (41st Street).

As part of a pilot program, the Florida Department of Transportation painted the shoulders as bike lanes east of US Highway 1 (US 1). Pedestrians are still prohibited.

I-195 begins at the eastern end of the I-95 and SR 112 interchange, also known as the 36th Street Interchange, heading east with interchanges with Miami Avenue and US 1 before heading onto the Julia Tuttle Causeway, where the Interstate crosses Biscayne Bay. At the eastern end of the causeway in Miami Beach, it has an interchange with SR 907 before terminating at the intersection of SR 907A and Arthur Godfrey Road, about Template:One2a west of SR A1A.[1][2]

History

On December 23, 1961, three signed roads along the route of SR 112 were opened: the 36th Street Tollway, now the Airport Expressway, I-195, and the I-195 Spur along with a stretch of I-95 in Miami. The I-195 Spur was the surface portion of the west–east state road along Arthur Godfrey Road in Miami Beach, connecting I-195 and SR A1A east of the causeway. The I-195 Spur signs disappeared from the road shortly after the designation was decommissioned by the newly formed U.S. Department of Transportation in the late 1960s.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

In popular culture

Famously, in early 1975, the rhythm of their car on this road was the inspiration for the Bee Gees's song "Jive Talkin'".[3]
