Special routes of U.S. Route 65
Highway system

A total of eight special routes of U.S. Route 65 exist, divided between the U.S. states of Arkansas and Missouri. Currently, they are all business loops, although a spur route in Pine Bluff, Arkansas and bypass routes in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Springfield, Missouri both existed in the past.

Branson-area business loop

U.S. Route 65 Business marker

U.S. Route 65 Business

LocationPoint LookoutBranson, Missouri
Length4.1 mi (6.6 km)

U.S Route 65 Business in the Branson area southern terminus begins in Point Lookout, Missouri at a Single-point urban interchange, which serves Point Lookout, College of the Ozarks, and Hollister, Missouri. Business 65 tracks west approximately 1,000 feet to an intersection with County Road 165 (south to the Table Rock Dam) and Opportunity Avenue (west to College of the Ozarks). Business 65 then turns right heading north, then on an overpass over US 65, toward Hollister. Next to the overpass lies the original southern terminus; removed when US 65 was upgraded to a 4-lane Expressway south of Lake Taneycomo. Business 65 then descends into the Turkey Creek Valley through historic downtown Hollister; crossing Turkey Creek north of downtown. Shortly after the Turkey Creek bridge, Business 65 is the western terminus of Missouri BB, which runs east toward the Hollister High School. Business 65 continues North to a Roundabout in the southeast bank of Lake Taneycomo, where it intersects with Missouri 76 (east to Forsyth, Missouri) and Branson Landing Boulevard; continuing with Missouri 76 west over the Lake Taneycomo Bridge, entering historic downtown Branson, Missouri.

Signage in Branson then takes Business 65, concurrent with Missouri 76, through downtown, then heads west by turning left at Main Street. Business 65/Missouri 76 then ascends what is locally known as "Hamburger Hill" (due to all of the Hamburger restaurants on either side of the roadway) to an interchange at US 65. Business 65 eastern terminus, thus, is at US 65, while Missouri 76 turns north, concurrently, with US 65. Continuing straight ahead will take you to 76 Country Boulevard, locally known as "The 76 Strip" or simply "The Strip." Business 65 originally continued straight onto Veterans Boulevard, instead of turning onto Main Street. It then continued until Veterans Boulevard until ending at US 65/Missouri 248/Shepherd of the Hills Expressway interchange. Business 65 was moved to its current alignment with the completion of the Branson Landing development in 2008. Some online maps still sign this alignment as Business 65. Also, a Business 65 bannered shield is attached to the side of the Roark Creek bridge just north of downtown; however, the sign cannot be seen from the roadway itself.

Ozark business loop

LocationOzark, Missouri
Length3.9 mi (6.3 km)

U.S. Route 65 Business southern terminus in Ozark, is at an interchange on the south side of town with US 65 and Missouri Route F. Business 65 runs east, past a Walmart Supercenter, among other stores, for about 1.4 miles. At the intersection of Business 65 and Missouri State Highway 14 (east to Sparta), both highways turn north concurrently toward downtown Ozark on what is also known as 3rd street. The route continues for 1.5 miles, mostly descending into the Finley River valley. Business 65/Route 14 then turn West onto Jackson Street, promptly crossing over the Finley River Bridge. The highways continue west for about 1 mile to an interchange at US 65; along the way, Business 65/Route 14 is the southern terminus for Missouri Route NN/9th street, which runs north to the Ozark High School. At US 65, Business 65 ends, while Route 14 continues west toward Nixa and US 160/Route 13.

Springfield business loop

U.S. Route 65 Business marker

U.S. Route 65 Business

LocationSpringfield, Missouri
Length8.9 mi (14.3 km)

U.S. Route 65 Business in Springfield parallels US 65, which follows the Schoolcraft Freeway along the east edge of town, for its entire length. Route 65 Business begins at an interchange with US 60, the James River Freeway. For most of its length, the route follows Glenstone Avenue, a major retail corridor in Springfield. Glenstone Avenue is an expressway from US 60 to Battlefield Road. At the corner of Battlefield and Glenstone lies Battlefield Mall, the region's largest shopping mall.

Business 65 continues north as a four-lane arterial road. At Sunshine Street, it serves as the western terminus of Route D. Route 65 Business continues along Glenstone until the intersection with Chestnut Expressway, where it meets I-44 Business. Eastbound I-44 BUS turns north from Chestnut onto Glenstone at this intersection, while Business 65 turns east onto Chestnut. Thus, the two routes do not truly intersect; all motorists must make a turn to continue on the numbered route that they were previously on. Business 65 then proceeds eastward along Chestnut Expressway until it intersects with mainline US-65, where the business route terminates. Originally, Business 65 continued north on Glenstone to Interstate 44; the routing was shifted when Chestnut Expressway east of Glenstone was turned over to MoDOT by the city in exchange for Division Street (previously Missouri YY between US 65 and Glenstone).

Grundy County route AA is now signed concurrently with Business 65 from Oklahoma Ave eastward to US highway 65

U.S. Highway 65 Bypass (US 65 Byp.) ran 10.4 miles (16.7 km) around Baton Rouge, the capital city of Louisiana.[8] It entirely duplicated the path of US 61 Byp. and existed during the period that US 65 was co-signed with US 61 between New Orleans, Louisiana and Natchez, Mississippi. The route followed the Airline Highway around what was then the outside of town, allowing through traffic from the south and east to access the Mississippi River Bridge while avoiding the downtown area. The bypass is now part of mainline US 61 and US 190.
