European route E65 is a north-south Class-A European route that begins in Malmö, Sweden and ends in Chania, Greece. The road is about 4,400 km (2,700 mi) in length.

Route

[edit]
E65 near Szczecin in Western Pomerania, Poland.
E65 near Skopje, North Macedonia.
E65 (A27) near Kozani in Western Macedonia, Greece heading north
E65 tunnel in Neochori, Greece.

Formerly, before 1985, this was the E14.

Planned changes

[edit]

In Greece, the E65 will be rerouted between Kozani and Lamia when the A3 motorway is completed: the revised route will follow the A2 motorway (Egnatia Odos) towards Kipoureio, and then the A3 itself towards Anthili via Trikala.[1]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The route between Montenegro and Kosovo is unclear, a problem currently shared with E80 which is concurrent with E65 on this section. The existing M-2 road that goes through Bijelo Polje continues northwards through western Serbia as E763, away from the direction of Pristina. Instead the route needs to turn to the east some 4 km (2.5 mi) before Bijelo Polje, at Ribarevina junction, and towards Priština. After that, the route goes southeast, throrugh Berane and Rožaje, where the route winds slightly northwards again, goes through western Serbia near Tutin, and then enters Kosovo near Zubin Potok.
