I-69 will go to Memphis, not Nashville.
I-69 connects the Canadian border with the Mexican border, and connects to roads in Canada and Mexico, which falls under the category of "integrating infrastructure", which some conspiracy kooks say is building the NAU.
At the north end of I-69 is Port Huron, Mich. The busiest US/CN crossing.
At the south end, in the lower Rio Grand Valley, is a grid of interstates that include I69C, I69E, I37, I2, I10, I35 to connect Laredo(the busiest US/Mex port), McAllen, and Brownsville to Port Huron.
This is just a single road of many that is part of reconfiguring the US road system and rails that began with the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991(ISTEA pronounced Ice Tea) and pushed along by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009(the Obama stimulus). Obama gave Texas $2.5 billion for roads, plus the money for improvements to ports(Houston and Galveston).
This is going on all over the world.
“I-69 will go to Memphis, not Nashville.”
Correct..
I should have said I-69 to I-24 will take less time than 65 direct.
