Proposed merger with Interstate 69 in Tennessee edit

This merger doesn't have to occur yet, but when I-69 is signed along TN 300 or extended north from US 51, I suggest this article be merged into I-69 in TN as it is apart of the Corridor. EBGamingWiki (talk) 14:49, 12 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I-69 Overlap Officialness edit

(The following is a comment posted on the I-40, I-240, and I-55 TN pages, which all claim overlaps with I-69. I hadn't realized when I drafted the first copy of this comment that SR 300 treats I-69 as "future". Wikipedia, inconsistency is thy name....)

There has been a bit of an edit war on the I-269 page, with the dust settling on a claim that Wikipedia should not recognize the extension of the interstate designation as official until there is documentation that TDOT has recognized the change, even if federal approvals have been granted.

This begs the question: for I-69 in Tennessee, is there any documentation in support of TDOT recognizing the designation as official? It's obviously been approved by AASHTO and FHWA; TDOT is almost certainly going to sign it as such if/when the new sections get built. But at the moment, I don't see any documentation that TDOT officially agrees that the overlap section of I-55/I-240/I-40/SR 300 really is I-69 today. There's just a bunch of internet lore, much of it referencing Wikipedia, that TDOT will sign it "someday".

(This comment is being added all of I-40/I-240/I-55/TN 300. More detail on I-269 talk page.) MikeTheActuary (talk) 04:57, 18 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
