Interstate 265 (I-265) is a 41.8-mile (67.3 km) Interstate Highway partially looping around the Louisville metropolitan area. It goes from I-65 in the southern part of Louisville, through Jefferson County, Kentucky, over the Ohio River on the Lewis and Clark Bridge into Indiana, where it meets I-65 again before continuing west to I-64, where it ends.
The entire Kentucky section of the road is also signed with Kentucky Route 841 (KY 841). An additional 10.2-mile-long (16.4 km) section of freeway between US 31W/US 60/KY 1934 and I-65 in the southern Louisville is only designated as KY 841. The highway is named the Gene Snyder Freeway after the former congressman, and usually called "the Snyder" by locals.
