Ohio State Route 795
State Route 795 (SR 795, OH 795) is an east–west state highway in northwestern Ohio, a U.S. state. The western terminus of State Route 795 is at U.S. Route 20 in Perrysburg, at the signalized intersection that doubles as the northern terminus of State Route 199. Its eastern terminus is at a signalized intersection with State Route 51 about 0.5 miles (0.80 km) southeast of Millbury.
State Route 795, which was created in the late 1930s, serves a number of small towns in northern Wood County. From just west of its interchange with Interstate 75 near Perrysburg to just west of its interchange with Interstate 280 near Walbridge, the route is a four-lane divided highway. This four-lane section is used as an alternative to the Ohio Turnpike. In 2005 and 2006, State Route 795 was one of the main detour routes for Interstate 280 during the construction of the Maumee River Crossing. Along its path, State Route 795 passes close to Toledo Executive Airport, a small airport near Walbridge.

“All inquiry into antiquity, all curiosity respecting the Pyramids, the excavated cities, Stonehenge, the Ohio Circles, Mexico, Memphis,—is the desire to do away this wild, savage, and preposterous There and Then, and introduce in its place the Here and Now.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Thou knowest in the state of innocency Adam fell, and what
should poor Jack Falstaff do in the days in villainy?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
