The Indiana Finance Authority and Indiana Department of Transportation are organizing an Industry Day for the Interstate 69 Section 5 P3 project to be held in Indianapolis the morning of Wednesday, May 22.

The project: 

The new Interstate 69 between Evansville and Indianapolis is widely regarded as a key component to the future economic vitality of southwestern Indiana, and will connect an entire region with improved access to jobs, education and healthcare.

The first 67 miles opened for business in November 2012 under budget and years ahead of chedule, and it now saves motorists more than 30 minutes in travel time when compared to other routes between Evansville and Crane. Construction is underway on all 27 miles of I-69 Section 4 between Crane and Bloomington, which is expected to open to traffic in phases during late 2014 and 2015.
