This portion of U.S. 41 was opened to traffic in 1963 as a bypass with at-grade intersections around the western part of North Fort Myers. The U.S. highway is also referred to as the Tamiami Trail, whose name was derived from the two metropolitan areas it connects, Tampa and Miami. The road was completed between the two cities in the late 1920's. Photo taken 11/09/08. |
