US 19 uses PA 65's freeway for less than a mile. PennDOT did not bother to sign US 19 on this stretch of US 19/PA 65 (SR 0019). The street below and to the right of this bridge carries an older segment of US 19, SR 3919.

The exit for US 19 north. PA 65 north continues on Ohio River Boulevard, whose expressway status ends here. The Boulevard continues as a multilane highway with frontage roads SR 4265 taking over SR 3919. Not too many secondary roads (SR) take on a number that is a variant of a US or state highway (compare PA 65 with SR 4265 and US 19 with SR 3919).

Now heading south on US 19 as it becomes a ramp to US 19/PA 65 south. PA 65 follows the freeway on the overpass. Note how old the US 19/PA 65 signs are. Beaver Avenue parallels the freeway.
