There are several rainbow crossings in Florida. In May 2025, Governor Desantis signed Senate Bill 1662 to keep "our transportation facilities free & clear of political ideologies." Following orders from the Florida Department of Transportation in August 2025, they are being removed along with all non-compliant street art.
A rainbow crossing used to be painted in Boynton Beach. The crossing was removed in 2025.
A rainbow crossing was painted in Delray Beach in 2021.
Funders of the project included the Palm Beach County Human Rights Council via the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.

Miami Beach has crosswalks with rainbow-colored pavers.
A rainbow-colored crossing was installed in Orlando, to honor the victims from the Pulse nightclub shooting that occurred on June 12, 2016. An online petition was signed by approximately 2,700 citizens requesting to have it painted nearby the nightclub museum. Approved by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the project ended up costing about $2,900 with the installation beginning on October 10 and completed the next day on October 11, 2017. The artwork was painted over by FDOT on August 21, 2025. Soon afterwards, people colored the sidewalk with chalk as law enforcement watched and warned them to stay out of the street.
St. Petersburg had a rainbow intersection that was installed in July 2020. On August 21, 2025, the city sent a letter to the Florida Department of Transportation requesting that five Rainbow Crossings be allowed to stay because they "create a strong sense of community and make roads safer." On August 22, they agreed to remove the street art including the one in front of the Woodson African American Museum of Florida. In December 2025, the city installed 11 rainbow themed bike racks near the intersection where the crossings were removed.
Tampa had to remove 47 street art locations in 2025 or lose transportation funding from the state.
A rainbow crossing was created in West Palm Beach in 2021. Plans to remove the painting were announced in 2025 and the removal was done on August 25. There are also plans to 'relocate and reimagine' the crossing to the planned Serenity Park in Northwood Village.
