| Route: | 41 |
| Location: | Fort Myers, Florida |
| Formed: | 1964 |
U.S. Route 41 Business is a former segment of U.S. Route 41 in Downtown Fort Myers and North Fort Myers, Florida. North of State Road 80, it carries the hidden designation State Road 739.
The road begins at the interchange of US 41 and SR State Road 80-82-867, historically known as the Five Points Interchange. The road briefly overlaps SR 80 along Main and Monroe Streets, where it becomes discontinuous (it once continued east along with SR 80 though downtown along the then-one-way First Street and Second Street but those streets were turned over to city control in 2006).[1]
Business US 41 resumes along SR 739 at SR 80, where it runs along Park Avenue (northbound) and Fowler Street (southbound) until they reach the Edison Bridge where the two streets merge. After crossing over the Caloosahatchee River BUS 41 enters North Fort Myers where it briefly becomes a six-lane undivided highway only for the divider to return north of Cabanna Avenue. The road heads north, intersecting with State Road 78. Between State Road 78 and Powell Drive, the road becomes a four-lane divided highway for the remainder of the route. The road finally ends at a former wye at US 41.

| Length Mi: | 16.703 |
U.S. Route 41 Business is an alternate route to U.S. Route 41 in Tampa, Florida that begins on the Nebraska Avenue-Florida Avenue apex in Lutz and continues south on Florida Avenue. Just south of Hillsborough Avenue (U.S. Route 92), Florida Avenue becomes a one-way street and the south-bound portion splits off into Highland Avenue and later Tampa Street until Downtown Tampa. The route joins State Road 60 at the one way couplet of Kennedy Boulevard (northbound) and Jackson Street (southbound). Jackson Street rejoins Kennedy Boulevard at Meridian Avenue in the Channelside District and the route continues east for 3 blocks until turning north on Channelside Drive. Shortly after, the route makes a slight curve east onto Adamo Drive until the two routes depart at 21st Street (southbound) and 22nd Street (northbound). The route continues south and 21st Street merges back with 22nd Street shortly before a parclo interchange with SR 618 (Selmon Expressway) and crosses over McKay Bay along the Licata Bridge. The route makes a slight curve and continues east as Causeway Boulevard until it reaches its southern terminus near Port Tampa Bay at US 41 (50th Street) and State Road 676 (Causeway Boulevard).
U.S. Route 541 was created in 1931 as a western alternate to US 41 between Palmetto and Tampa; US 41 then followed the present US 301 between those points. In 1938, US 41 was moved from Tampa north to Lutz, and the old route became an extension of US 541. US 541 was eliminated in 1951; the route north from Tampa became US 41 Business, while south from Tampa it became US 41, with old US 41 becoming an extension of US 301.

U.S. Route 41 Business (US 41 Bus.) was a business route of US 41 that existed in Clayton and Fulton counties. It partially traveled in Atlanta. At least as early as 1919, SR 3 traveled on essentially the same path as it currently does in the northern part of Clayton County and the southeastern part of Fulton County.[7] By the end of 1926, US 41 had been designated on the entire length of SR 3 in these counties. The segment of the highway from just north-northwest of the Henry–Clayton county line to Marietta had a "completed hard surface".[8] [9] By the end of 1929, US 19 was designated on SR 3 in the two counties to the main part of Atlanta.[9] [10]
In 1953, US 19/US 41/SR 3 was shifted eastward onto the "Expressway" (the precursor of Interstate 75 (I-75)) in the southern part of Atlanta, traveled west on Lakewood Avenue, and then resumed the northern path. The former path became US 19 Bus./US 41 Bus.[11] [12] By the end of 1965, US 19/US 41/SR 3 was shifted onto the former path of US 19 Bus./US 41 Bus. in the Atlanta area.[13] [14]

All of SR 3E in the northern part of Atlanta was hard surfaced. From the north part of the city to the northwest part, the highway had completed grading, but was not surfaced.[16] [17] Later that year, all of SR 3E from Atlanta to northwest of the Fulton–Cobb county line had a completed hard surface.[17] [23]
In 1940, nearly the entire segment of SR 3E in Marietta had a completed hard surface. It was under construction from northwest of the Fulton–Cobb county line to the eastern part of Marietta.[24] [25] By the end of the next year, the entire length of SR 3E had a completed hard surface.[26] [27] By February 1948, SR 3E was moved off of Hemphill Avenue. It, along with US 41 Temp., followed US 19 on Spring Street, then traveled west on 14th Street and resumed the Northside Drive path.[19] [20] By April 1949, US 41 Temp./SR 3E's southbound lanes traveled on Hemphill Avenue.[20] [21] By the middle of 1950, US 41 Temp./SR 3E was shifted off of US 19 on Spring Street and 14th Street, and traveled on Hemphill Avenue again.[21] [22] In 1952, US 41 Temp. was redesignated as part of the US 41 mainline, which was shifted off of SR 3W and onto SR 3E.[28] [11]
