State Route 385 (SR 385), also known as the Bill Morris Parkway, is a state highway in the Memphis Metropolitan Area in Shelby and Fayette counties in West Tennessee, connecting I-240 in East Memphis with I-269 near Collierville.
The Paul W. Barret and Winfield Dunn Parkways were formerly part of SR 385, but both later became parts of the I-269 Memphis Outer Loop, forming the northern half of the semi-circular loop; the southern half is currently designated as part of Mississippi Highway 304. At the present time, the route is not signed as I-269, but signs have been installed in Tennessee that read "Future I-269 Corridor." When the Bill Morris segment between U.S. Route 72 (US 72) and SR 57 was constructed, a partial interchange was built between the two roads. A flyover ramp was built for the eastbound lanes spanning an empty field for what was to become the through lanes for I-269 and ghost ramps were built for both directions. Construction on completing this interchange started in 2013 when the I-269 segment between here and the Tennessee–Mississippi state line began construction. SR 385 terminates at what is now I-269.
