State Route 385 is the designation for three separate segments of highway in the Memphis Metropolitan Area in Shelby and Fayette counties in west Tennessee, forming a semicircle around and through the Memphis suburbs. Clockwise, from the north, they are:
- Paul K. Barret Parkway, from U.S. Route 51 in Millington to Interstate 40 in Arlington.
- Collierville-Arlington Parkway, from I-40 in Arlington to State Route 57 in Collierville, Tennessee.
- Bill Morris Parkway (formerly known as Nonconnah Parkway), from Collierville to Interstate 240 in East Memphis.
- (It is planned for all 3 sections to be named Bill Morris Parkway, until they are connected, only the former Nonconnah Parkway has been renamed.)
As of 2006, the Paul Barret and Bill Morris parkways are substantially complete, except for a short section of the Bill Morris Parkway from U.S. Route 72 to State Route 57 in Collierville, which is expected to open to traffic by June 30, 2007.
Construction on the Collierville-Arlington Parkway, with passage through Piperton, Tennessee, is proceeding from north to south, with the complete route expected to open sometime around 2011.
The route is constructed to Interstate-compatible freeway standards with full control of access throughout.
The Barret and Collierville-Arlington parkways are planned to become part of the Interstate 269 Memphis Outer Loop within the next decade.
