Gov. Holcomb, INDOT mark progress at new I-69/I-465 system interchange On Thursday, March 14, Gov. Eric J. Holcomb, INDOT Commissioner Mike Smith, and members of the I-69 Finish Line project team signed one of the final steel bridge girders that will be hung later this week to form the I-69/I-465 system interchange. Once complete, the interchange will connect I-69 to I-465 and allow traffic to ...

I-69 Johnson County Update July 2023 with Caleb Frey
I-69 will be very important for going from Mexico City to Toronto. I am glad to see advancements in this endeavor.
Congratulations Indiana!
So… all in all, there’s no point in opening the ramps as it leads to more construction. Whew 😆 this is insane. Indiana moves soooo slow with these projects. Texas however, they’re a beast at building roads and they move soo fast. Texas would have had this complete within a couple of months to a year.
So Texas could have built the interstate from Evansville to Indianapolis in a year? I seriously doubt that. There’s portions of I-69 still being built in Texas. Why don’t they it done? At least Indiana will be completely done around the end of the year.
Hillarious statement. Check the Wikipedia entry I69 in Texas. Work began in 2015 as of today, 75 miles have been completed! 10 years...75 miles. Thats Texas!
@@AntJWarren the guy obviously has no clue what he’s talking about.
Don’t live anywhere near, but loves INDOT’s hardwork and motivation. This will improve the country!
Awesome. Been traveling to Memphis several times every year for the past 40 years.Sure beats going I-70 / I-57, I-55! Could use a rest park between Bloomington and Evansville, a long strech with limited services, though in time I'm sure it will grow. Again, so glad this is completed. Now to get the new bridge built at Evansville to fully finish the I-69 connection with Kentucky.
This is awesome. They were talking about this freeway back in the 80's, when I was in my 20's. It is almost completely done now and I'm 65.
New Jersey had to change state route 69 to 31 because all of the signs kept getting stolen
Fun fact - I-69 runs just past Muncie Indiana - home of Ball State University! Another fun fact - Ball State has hosted at least one basketball game with Morehead College from Kentucky. "Morehead @ Ball State" !
Too bad Fort Wayne never gets anything.
I suppose the speed limit on Highway 69 is lickety split!
Later this year, the remaining of I-69 between IN-144 and I-465, south of Indianapolis Indiana will be complete, making the second state to finish I-69, Michigan is the other. Kentucky will be the third state to finish I-69, except for the Ohio River Bridge between south of Evansville Indiana and Henderson Kentucky.
Northern Indiana doesn't get anything.
US 30 between Fort Wayne and Chicago gets vastly more truck traffic than this does. Yet nothing is ever done up on US 30.
Hurry up and finish
As an aside, all that heavy equipment is powered by diesel and always will be. That is, it will never be battery electric. That idea is absurd. For several reasons.
69 Likes
finished 2025 😅
Why 69
Yay more lanes, maybe it will solve traffic this time.
Indiana.. the archetypical fly-over state.
I can't wait until you can drive from Evansville to Indianapolis
I can't wait until it done
How do they keep the signs from being stolen
roads and maps were my autism hyper fixation...almost 25 now and here I am nerding out about I-69...nice
Then in my thoughts I look at our Indiana map now and imagine what it really could be once they finally pencil that last section of I-69 into the mainstream maps like on the news, weather, etc. My mind goes in 2 directions. 1, it's pretty hard to get to the SE side of Indiana (Madison), so it seems we need another means between I-65 South and I-74 South. Then I applaud the state for taking US-31 to Interstate standards so that one could drive directly north/south through the state. Then I think about I-465 and how it's mostly become landlocked now. Unless we can make I-465 a double-decker highway, I think it'd be wise for the state to look at building a second loop around to connect more rural and suburban areas to each other and Indy, while giving more development opportunity to rural areas that really could use the extra tax income. Then I think of what "another I-465" would do in terms of keeping us up with the big BIG cities that have 2, 3 or even 4 loops or more. It's very clustered an not very intitutive from a distribution/logistics standpoint to have to come all the way to Indy to split off to another interstate or direction if say you're going from Chicago to Louisville, when we could have that happen a lot further north and then have them go south and bypass all our tight, less than truck friendly interstate splits. I'm speculating here, but hoping they do something major like this to cut down on major truck traffic on I-465 that will only continue to increase as more multi-million square feet warehouses are built.
They've been working on Southport road for 3 years. If this is sign of completion we're in for overtime.
I went through there a month ago and was shocked it still wasn’t done.
Notice the billboard
How many lanes do you need? The original bridge allows for 5 lanes in each direction with only 3 lanes in use
There will be a new interchange off I-465, and it is exit 5, which is a mile west of IN-37 for I-69 in Indianapolis Indiana.
Yes. The endzone is in sight. Soon we can spike the football and call this long drive finished with a big touchdown.
It'll be a great time saver as long as the dumb Hoosyers stay off it 😂
They made it look fast here. But in reality projects like this take months.
The beams the most important part
"I'll hop on after I take a nap." Bros nap: *high pitched Ballin by Roddy Ricch plays*
The number of lanes underneath the bridge seems the same as before, what's changed? Did they make the road width wider?
Replacing the overpass is likely 12-18 months ahead of actual freeway construction. I think it was wise to do it this way to deconflict the work and keeps things less crazy for everyone.
When will Southport Road re-open?
Today, we can all proudly say: I 69!
Thank you, Andy! We have enjoyed your work and hosting you at our Southdale and Bethany Gardens meetings to share the INDOT message. We will miss you.
Thank you
Nice
3.9 runs parallel. Duh?
IQ
Thank you
Thank you and all involved as a courier for FedEx it's nice having epler open can't wait for Banta to be back open and Southport finished. It's been interesting watching the progress
yuck:(
Wait - They were raising and setting concrete beams _without_ stopping traffic????🤨😬
yeah ok but its not gonna connect me if i bike
I work for FedEx and i love watching the progress as a courier in the area
Beautiful job
I noticed the I-69 North signs in the Evansville area haven't been updated to having either Bloomington or Indianapolis as the control city. They just have defacto thru-traffic signs.
The Chinese would have finished this in one weekend.
Then it would have collapsed 15 years later
@@aboeckmann that's an old song. No one sings that anymore.
@@MetaView7You sure about that? 🤔
collapses a year later
@@MukisaSS search youtube for "bridge in one weekend". You will see this done in other countries too.
Unlike here in Texas no real progress
Here in Indiana, we need it badly to connect our college capital bloomington to Indianapolis
