State Road 230 (SR 230) is a short state highway in northeastern Florida that runs between Starke, Florida and Camp Blanding. It runs east and west and is always no more than two lanes wide. Within the Starke city limits, and slightly beyond, the road is known as Call Street.
Route description
State Road 230 begins in front of the Old Bradford County Courthouse which is at the northeast corner of US 301, one block north of SR 100. West of this intersection, West Call Street is a city street, and both sides of the intersection are restricted to right turns on US 301. This part of the road also runs through the Call Street Historic District, and a pair of CSX Transportation railroad lines that once carried Amtrak's Palmetto runs between Thompson and Cherry Streets.
As the road crosses the Clay County Line, it is simply named SR 230, where it passes by the Starke Golf and Country Club. The road enters Camp Blanding territory on the same straight path, until curving to the north, while Kingsley Road continues to the east. SR 230 contains two endings at SR 16. The first is an extension for westbound traffic. The second is along Kingsley Lake, where SR 16 runs north momentarily until curving back to the east.

| Location | Starke |
Florida State Truck Route 230 in Starke, Florida was designated in order to divert trucks from the historic Call Street Historic District. The truck route originally ran for one block on South Water Street between SR 230 and SR 100 along the eastern edge of the Starke Downtown Music Pavilion. Due to the FDOT project to add a bridge for SR 100 over the CSX Wildwood Subdivision, Truck Route 230 was relocated to the newly constructed South Saint Claire Street.[3]
