The road carries on north-west and goes over the Western Big Surf Railroad. The road finally dead ends in front of the Ocean View Parking Lot at the Lambert Parkway T-intersection.

5th Street features a 940-yard long covered section between the Riverside Avenue intersection and the Evans Boulevard crossing.

[edit] Shortcuts

[edit] Young Avenue

At the east entry to the covered section of the road (on the west side of the road, southbound lane), lies an opening to a back alley which effectively cuts the corner and leads players onto Young Avenue. Additionally, players can continue straight ahead after exiting the shortcut to use another path that leads to the Young Avenue and Paradise Avenue intersection.

[edit] Hamilton Avenue

The north-east corner of this junction features a small pedestrian path inside the curve that drivers can use to cut that very corner. It leads northbound on Hamilton Avenue and can be taken in the opposite direction.

[edit] Gameplay Strategies

5th Street does not offer a direct itinerary to Finish locations. The street is not linked to any important roads that offer a direct route to a finish line, which makes it uninteresting route for race events.
Aggressive drivers won't find much excitement on 5th Street other than in the covered section in which both lanes are separated by support pillars and thus tighten the span of the road and intensifies the action as well as making it easier to score Wall Takedowns.
It is highly inadvisable to use this road during Stunt Run events. There are no Billboards in the vicinity and there are no Ramps located along this road either. No multipliers can be scored on this road.
Players traveling on 5th Avenue during an offline Marked Man may use the covered section's support pillars as cover against the attacks of rivals, but during an online event it is dangerous to stay too close to walls as players are easily taken down when forced against them.
