Florida State Road 105
highway in Florida
State Road 105 (SR 105) is a 36.818-mile-long (59.253 km) north-south state highway in northeastern Jacksonville, Florida. It travels from an interchange with Interstate 95 (I-95) just north of downtown eastward (signed north) along the north bank of the St. Johns River to an intersection with SR A1A, at the Mayport Ferry, and then along SR A1A to the end of SR 200 in Fernandina Beach.
SR 105 is the only access road to the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. In fact, the entire road was named Heckscher Drive for years. However, the section from I-95 east to I-295 East Beltway was renamed Zoo Parkway.

Why this record matters
The phrase “highway in Florida” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2432552. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
