Like most cities in the United States the area is organised by a grid system and streets are named accordingly.
- Cape Coral is divided into four zones: Southwest (SW), Southeast (SE), Northwest (NW) and Northeast (NE).
- The Santa Barbara Boulevard runs North to South and separates the city into West and East.
- The Hancock Bridge Parkway runs from East to West and divides the city from North to South
- Where these two main streets cross is the City Centre.
- The streets between the main streets are numbered, the further you are from the centre the higher the numbers get.
Florida State Road 884 (SR884) and Country Road 884 (CR884)
together create Lee County, Florida's primary east–west partially controlled access highway, linking Cape Coral in the western portion of the county to Lehigh Acres and Alva in the eastern portion.
Country Road 884 (Cape Coral and Fort Myers)
County Road 884 begins in Cape Coral as Veterans Parkway, a limited-access highway, heading south from the intersection with SR 78 and then turning east, with an interchange at Del Prado Boulevard (County Road 867A). After crossing the Caloosahatchee River on the Midpoint Bridge into Fort Myers the highway, it is known as Colonial Boulevard, a controlled-access road. Following intersections with McGregor Boulevard (SR 867), and Summerlin Road (CR 869), it has an interchange at Cleveland Avenue (Tamiami Trail-U.S. Route 41), where it becomes State Road 884.
