Route description

Highway 365 near Maumelle

As a former U.S. Route, the route passes through many historic districts and has many junctions. The route begins at US 65B/US 79B in northwest Pine Bluff near the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff and runs northwest. Highway 365 is known as Dollarway Road in this part of Pine Bluff as it follows the original routing of the Dollarway Road, a 1913 paving project that gave Jefferson County the longest continuous concrete road in the nation at the time.^[4] Highway 365 meets its spur route further northwest, the spur connects Highway 365 to I-530/US 65 and US 270. Now entering White Hall, Highway 365 passes the historic Bellingrath House and intersects Highway 256 near the Pine Bluff Arsenal.

Roosevelt Road serves Main Street before forming a northbound concurrency with US 70 along Broadway Street. This segment of road passes many historic properties in addition to I-630. Highway 365 crosses over the Arkansas River into North Little Rock and breaks from US 70 to the west near Dickey-Stephens Park. Highway 365 passes over the railyard, intersecting Riverfront Drive and becoming Pike Avenue to the north. Highway 365 intersects Interstate 40/US 65 before passing Camp Robinson.

Notes

1. Although Arkansas highways normally terminate when intersected by a route of greater importance, Highway 365's history as a former alignment of US 65 is reflected when intersecting state highways of a lesser number. Although routes of a lower number and the same class usually take priority at a concurrency, AR 365 still has preference to state routes but not US routes along its path.^[6]
