East of the county line, a guide sign announces the first interchange along the Lloyd Expressway, for University Parkway, a four lane expressway that connects the Lloyd Expressway (SR 62) with the Diamond Avenue Expressway (SR 66). The parkway is part of a new highway that is expected to connect the Lloyd and Diamond Expressways with Interstate 64, although there is no projected date for when the parkway will be finished that far north.

Approaching the interchange with the University Parkway is a sign announcing the main attraction in the area, the University of Southern Indiana. USI, as it's usually called, was formed as a auxiliary campus to Indiana State University (based out of Terre Haute) and has grown to become its own institution. It is primarily a commuter campus for the Southwest Indiana region with most of its students living within Vanderburgh County.

The University Parkway interchange is a diamond interchange that provides the main gateway into the University of Southern Indiana campus. University Parkway was proposed as a four lane road but for a time served only as a boulevard through the USI campus. In 2009 it was extended north to Upper Mount Vernon Road and in 2012 up to Diamond Avenue Expressway (SR 66). The highway serves to provide a connection between both highways on the far west side of Evansville, with access to Interstate 64 available via SR 66 and SR 65 or U.S. 41.

The exit ramps in this area are very localized and serve little traffic other than those living in this area. At-grade junctions are limited to turn-offs without crossover traffic, allowing the Lloyd to remain free-flowing through the neighborhood. The guardrail in the middle is located at the crossover with Ingel Avenue, preventing traffic from crossing the highway.

St. Joseph Avenue is the major north-south road across the west side of Evansville, retaining four lanes up to the Diamond Avenue Expressway (SR 66). Before the Diamond Avenue Expressway, St. Joseph Avenue was SR 66 and U.S. 460 as it went across Pigeon Creek along Division Street and then proceeded north on St. Joseph. St. Joseph Avenue is often mentioned in talks for a new interchange with the Lloyd, but there is no timeline as to when one may be built.

A view of the Lloyd Expressway (SR 62) as it passes by the Mead Johnson Nutritionals Plan beyond St. Joseph Avenue. A couple of blocks to the north of the Lloyd is Franklin Street. This street is home to one of the largest street fairs in the country, the West side Nut Club Fall Festival. This week-long festival is undoubtedly the largest event in Evansville during the year. It brings in over 150,000 visitors that enjoy the carnival-like setting and the unique food vendors, selling such items like chocolate-covered grasshoppers and (Cow) Brain Sandwiches. Franklin Street can be accessed via either Wabash Avenue or St. Joseph Avenue.

East of Wabash Avenue, the Lloyd Expressway (SR 62) rises onto a bridge over Pigeon Creek as it enters the Downtown Evansville area. The next interchange is with Fulton Avenue. Traffic bound for John Street, First Avenue and Third Street are directed to use the ramp to Fulton Avenue, which becomes a frontage road (named John Street) to the east of Fulton Avenue. Downtown Evansville and its various attractions are also best reached from this direction by taking the Fulton Avenue interchange. This forthcoming interchange was built in 2011 to replace an at-grade intersection with the Lloyd Expressway, extending the freeway portion of the roadway west to Wabash Avenue.

A guide sign directs traffic toward John Street, First Avenue and Third Street onto the Fulton Avenue off-ramp. Until the Fulton Avenue interchange was built, there was a deceleration slip ramp to John Street (east of the Fulton Avenue intersection), that connected with First Avenue and Third Street. However, the closeness to the new interchange prompted INDOT to close this ramp and use the new on-ramp onto Fulton for the same purpose.

Now crossing over Fulton Avenue, the next interchange is with Main Street at a distance of a half mile. Main Street provides another north-south route into the north side of Evansville. To the right, one can see the John Street frontage road. At this point of the expressway, the street grid to the south turns to 45 degree streets which form the standard downtown grid for Evansville. Because the horseshoe bend of the Ohio River, in which the river flows from southeast to northwest, the streets are aligned accordingly. North of the Lloyd Expressway, and originally Division Street, the grid returns to a typical north-south and west-east pattern.

The Lloyd Expressway (SR 66) approaches the Burkhardt Road intersection. Burkhardt Road is a major four lane north-south road connecting Morgan Avenue (SR 62) to the north with the Lloyd Expressway to the south. Burkhardt Road also leads to several big-box stores that are located here due to the close access to the Lloyd Expressway. Double left turn lanes on each side emphasize the traffic that flows through here. This has prompted INDOT to consider their next location for an interchange along the Lloyd Expressway to be here at Burkhardt Road, planned competition date? 2035. For the next few decades, traffic here will help to epitomize the slow-going nature of the Lloyd Expressway.

To the east of the Burkhardt Road interchange, we are now a half mile away from Interstate 69. Access to the freeway, the former Interstate 164, is the primary reason for all the commercial business around this area. That and the growing nature of the Warrick County suburbs to the east of Interstate 69.

Finally, SR 66 has its interchange with Interstate 69. Interstate 164 was a 21 mile spur of Interstate 64 that connected the major west-east interstate with the Evansville area. The route was incorporated into an extension of I-69 in fall 2014 and is also designated as the Robert Orr Highway. A cloverleaf interchange facilitates movement between SR 66 and Interstate 69. From this interchange east, the Lloyd Expressway officially ends leaving the road as solely SR 66. SR 66 remains multi-lane as it bypasses the town of Newburgh in southern Warrick County en route toward the Perry County seat of Tell City.
