Interstate 65 in Alabama - Future

Future

Interstate 22 will connect with I - 65 at the new exit 265. Construction on this interchange was expected to begin in August 2009.

Just a few miles north of I-22 will be the new interchange (exit 274), which will be the Corridor X-1 and has been designated as Interstate 422. This loop route will connect I-65 with I-59 northeast of Birmingham and I-20/I-59 southwest of Birmingham, and this will serve as an Interstate Highway bypass of Birmingham, augmenting the existing Interstate 459, which already provides the southern loop of Birmingham. Construction of this interchange is still several years away, but right-of-way is in the process of being acquired to build I-422.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    In any future great national trial, compared with the men of this, we shall have as weak, and as strong; as silly and as wise; as bad and good.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    I shall soon be six-and-twenty. Is there anything in the future that can possibly console us for not being always twenty-five?
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    It is a time when one’s spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
