Comments

Part of this route was originally part of U.S. Highway 65 This highway still runs from Iowa to Minnesota forth in, but now ends in Albert Lea where it connects with Interstate 35. I-35 and I- 35W follow roughly the same route as U.S. 65 originally led to Minneapolis. Before the freeways were built, was U.S. 65 between Burnsville and Minneapolis along the Lyndale Avenue.

In July 2005, a small portion of Minnesota Highway 65 was in the center of Minneapolis back dedicated to the city administration ( between Washington Avenue and Interstate 35W ). The southern end is now located at the intersection of Third Avenue South and Washington Avenue in downtown Minneapolis.

Highway 65 is signposted in the center of Minneapolis as 3rd Avenue South and leading to the Third Avenue Bridge. After crossing the river, the name will change to Central Avenue and after the intersection with SE University Avenue into Central Avenue NE. The road retains this name until the division in Ham Lake, except for a split in Fridley and Spring Lake Park between Interstate 694 and U.S. Highway 10

Minnesota Highway 65 between I- 694 and north of Cambridge a four-lane expressway. From there to the end, in the north of the state the road is two lanes.
