SITR Cancelled; I-69 Extension To Be Toll-free
On November 9, 2006, Governor Daniels announced that I-69 between Evansville and Indianapolis will be built as a toll-free expressway, effectively canceling plans for the Southern Indiana Toll Road.
Since the Indiana General Assembly has not repealed language in the 2006 Major Moves law authorizing construction of the SITR, officials could resurrect SITR plans in the future should efforts to build the I-69 extension as a toll-free route fail.
