History
The original length of I-69 between Indianapolis and the Michigan state line was completed in November 1971. Since then, I-69 has been divided into a number of sections of independent utility (SIUs) dealing with an extension of the freeway to the Mexican border in Texas. The original section of I-69 in Indiana in its entirety is now part of SIU 1.
