Florida Intrastate Highway System (FIHS)

Florida Intrastate Highway System

The Florida Intrastate Highway System Section develops and maintains the network of highways that combined make up the intrastate system. The Florida Intrastate Highway System (FIHS), created in 1990 by the Florida Legislature, is composed of interconnected limited- and controlled-access roadways including:

  1. Interstate highways
  2. Florida's Turnpike System
  3. Selected urban expressways
  4. Existing major interregional and intercity arterial highways to be upgraded to higher controlled access standards
  5. New limited access facilities.

It is a statewide transportation network that provides for high-speed and high-volume traffic movements within the state. The system also accommodates High-Occupancy Vehicles (HOVs), express bus transit and, in some corridors, passenger rail service. The primary function of the system is to serve interstate and regional commerce and long-distance trips. For further information on the FIHS, select the desired component below.
