Known to residents of Pahokee, Florida, as State Market Road, State Road 729 (SR 729) is a 2.290 miles (3.685 km) long north–south road bypassing the city on the southeastern shore of Lake Okeechobee. SR 729 is entirely within the city limits of Pahokee and serves as a truck bypass.
As motorists driving northbound on US 98/441/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.
The route was originally signed as State Road 15A.
