Route description
Route 165 enters Rhode Island on a causeway over Beach Pond. It travels east through the woods along Ten Rod Road. Shortly before its eastern end, the highway passes beneath Interstate 95, however Route 165 does not connect directly to the Interstate. It ends at an intersection with Nooseneck Hill Road, which carries Route 3.
