State officials have awarded a $79 million contract to widen a section of Interstate 69 to six lanes.
The project is in the stretch from near the Indiana 38 interchange at Pendleton north to the Anderson area. No starting date yet. The project includes 8.4 miles of new construction and 6.5 miles of pavement maintenance. Anderson economic development director Greg Winkler says the I-69 widening will reduce travel time to Indianapolis and make the city more attractive to new residents.
