The stretch of Interstate 69 between Evansville and U.S. 231 in Greene County will open for traffic the afternoon of Nov. 19, the Indiana Department of Transportation announced Friday.
“Hoosiers will be glad to know that the new I-69 corridor connecting Evansville to Crane will be delivered several years ahead of schedule and nearly $80 million under budget,” said Gov. Mitch Daniels in the announcement. “Many people said this interstate expansion wouldn’t happen in their lifetime, but it’s now poised to open and the result will be greater economic opportunity, faster and safer travel, improved connectivity, easier access for leisure travel and more.”
