This is a picture of the northern end of OH-65 on North Summit Street near the I-280 NB entrance ramp.

Here is a shot from the western end of the bridge.  At this point, OH-2 leaves and follows Broadway through South Toledo.  OH-51 and OH-65 turn right at Summit Street. 

Here are two shots of the Anthony Wayne Bridge from the roadway.

At the intersection of Nevada (pronounced Ne-VA (as in letter "A")-duh) Street and Woodville Road, OH-65 joins in to make three routes crossing the Maumee River.  OH-65 follows Oak Street, but a left turn in prohibited at Oak from NB 51.  This sign is pointed the wrong way.  Note the "WOODVILLE" street sign coming at you from the picture.  The assembly should be turned toward you like the street sign is.

Heading NB on 65, you encounter this menagerie of signs on Fassett Street.  OH-65 turns left onto Oak Street.  Isn't this scenic?!?

At Fassett Street, this sign points you to turn if you're trying to get to Routes 2 and 51.  OH-65 also turns here as well.  Back until the late 1950's, Fassett Street was linked to Walbridge Avenue in South Toledo by a very old bridge which used to get hit quite a bit by lake freighters.  It met its fate in 1959 when the DiSalle Bridge (I-75) was finished, rendering the Fassett Bridge useless.

At the Rossford/Toledo line, the Ohio Byways designation ends, as you will see why later on.

BERGIN STREET

"Downtown" Rossford.

Rossford wants you to slow down in their school zones.  Notice the day-glo, attention-getting post on this school zone sign and the attention-getting car of one of Rossford's finest in the background!

Welcome to Rossford!

The elusive Ohio Byway sign, found!  Along OH-65 before the Ohio Turnpike crossing.

The Ohio Turnpike pass over the Maumee River and over 65 just ahead in the foreground.

An idea of the scenery you will find along the Perrysburg run of OH-65.  This is on River Road along the banks of the Maumee River.

Leaving Perrysburg, a subtle remainder not to passing when the solid yellow line is in your lane.  This kind gentleman in front was passed as soon as the line in our line turned dashed.  Speed limit is 45, he was going 25.

At Louisiana Avenue, US-20 turns right and heads toward I-75, US-23 and Woodville, Ohio.

This picture is at the end of the approach from the Maumee-Perrysburg Bridge.  OH-65 comes in from the south, along OH-25, turns right and goes through Perrysburg, sharing the road with US-20.
