It runs along West Dixie Highway, the original alignment of the Dixie Highway (but never U.S. Route 1), from the east end of State Road 924 in North Miami northeast to State Road 826 in North Miami Beach, just across the Florida East Coast Railway from State Road 5 (US 1). close to its south end is a 0.084-mile (0.135 km) concurrency with State Road 922, signed TO SR 909; the east end of this concurrency is a five-way intersection with State Road 915 running north-south.

History

Since current SR 909 was the original Dixie Highway, it was part of pre-1945 State Road 4. This old alignment continued south on Northeast Second Avenue to downtown Miami, and north on streets named West Dixie Highway and Dixie Highway to Dania, and was assigned the pre-1945 State Road 176 designation in 1931. It however did not receive a number in the 1945 renumbering.

In the early 1980s, the number State Road 929 was assigned to what is now SR 909. Around 1983 it was renumbered, and since then it has been SR 909.
