As motorists driving northbound on US 98/US 441/SR 15 veer to the west onto East Seventh Street and north onto Lake Avenue to go into downtown Pahokee, SR 729 continues alongside Florida East Coast Railroad tracks to the northeast and north through the outskirt farmlands of Pahokee, to reconnect with US 98/441/SR 15, which continues along the shore of Lake Okeechobee as Everglades Street.[3]
The route was originally signed as State Road 15A.[citation needed]
The entire route is in Pahokee, Palm Beach County.
