First dirt turned for future I-69

Posted

With whipping wind blowing through the delta, officials from ARDOT, the state highway commission, U.S. Congress, and local government officials met at the ARDOT District 2 office on Tuesday, Dec. 20 to “break ground” for the future I-69 corridor. This project began in the 1980’s with the idea of a “Great River Bridge”. Once constructed, part of I-69 will run through Drew County as it connects states from Michigan to Texas.
