The city is served by [[Zanesville Municipal Airport]], built during [[World War II]], and opened near the end. It has two {{convert|5000|ft|m|abbr=on}} runways. The airport had commercial flights from the late 1940s until the early 1970s.

The city is also served by several railroad lines.

[[Interstate 70]] and [[U.S. Route 40]] (which closely follows the path of the older [[National Road]]), pass through Zanesville and run roughly parallel to each other. From the southwest, [[US 22 (OH)|US 22]] approaches from [[Cincinnati]]. North-south state highways [[Ohio State Route 60|60]] and [[Ohio State Route 93|93]] pass through Zanesville.  Other state routes include [[Ohio State Route 666|666]], [[Ohio State Route 555|555]], [[Ohio State Route 719|719]], and [[Ohio State Route 146|146]].

A [[three-way bridge]] called the "[[Y-Bridge (Zanesville, Ohio)|Y-Bridge]]" spans the confluence of the [[Licking River (Ohio)|Licking]] and the [[Muskingum River|Muskingum]] rivers.  Listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]], it is one of few bridges of its type in the United States. Its unique shape led pilot [[Amelia Earhart]] to describe Zanesville as "the most recognizable city in the country".<ref>[http://www.coz.org/ City of Zanesville Website] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071012225837/http://www.coz.org/|date=October 12, 2007}}, accessed February 15, 2008.</ref> It has been rebuilt numerous times since the 1850s.
