A Miami-Dade County road segment between S.W. 24th Street and S.R. 90/S.W. 8th Street receives the name “Charlie Kirk Memorial Avenue.”
A Broward County section of Commercial Boulevard receives the name “President Donald J. Trump Boulevard,” and transportation officials must mark both designated road sections.
