INDOT's FEIS- Appendix E presentation to Federal Highway Administration to gain tier 1 approval for I-69 on 3-C:

COUNT US! has always been critical of INDOT stealth.

As we imagine a built I-69, this page is dedicated to documenting the basis for our projection of I-69 in Monroe County. It supports our pages:

The DEIS in the atlas section said that 63% of roads crossed by 3C would be closed, with no grade separations or intersections, yet only ~10% have been identified so far. The rest are labeled "potential" crossings or intersections.

Typical Indiana Interstates only provide access points at State and Federal Highways. Monroe County Can expect 5 or less access intersections to and from I-69.
