The SR 112 begins approximately 1 km north of the main entrance to Miami Airport at the point where US Highway 27 meets State Roads 948 and 953 . From here, the road crosses first the State Road 9 before being sent to a motorway interchange on Interstate 95 meets. This is where the name of the street as the Airport Expressway ends . Further in an easterly direction, the road (additionally) crosses US Highway 1 as Interstate 195 before it leads over the Julia Tuttle Causeway to Miami Beach . There it first meets State Road 907 and then State Road A1A , only to end a few meters later in a dead end on the Boardwalk of Miami Beach. Already at the SR 907, about 1.5 km before its end, its autobahn-like condition ends and turns into a shopping street (41st Street / Arthur Godfrey Road) characterized by Jewish shops and facilities.
