Interstate 369 (I-369) is a north–south Interstate spur route running through Northeast Texas. Once complete, the freeway will begin at an interchange with I-69/U.S. Highway 84 (US 84) east of Tenaha and head northward to Carthage, Marshall, Jefferson, and Atlanta before terminating at an interchange with I-49/US 59/US 71 north of Texarkana. For its entire length, I-369 will share its alignment with US 59.

Route description

I-369 currently begins at US 59/Loop 151 and goes 3 miles north where it currently ends at I-30.

Plans call for I-369 to begin at US 59/84/Future I-69 in Tenaha then head north serving Carthage, Marshall, Jefferson, and Atlanta before entering Texarkana where it crosses I-30 then extends northward to an interchange with I-49 where I-369 will end.

History

At its meeting on November 15, 2012, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) approved a 118-mile-long (190 km) highway to be numbered I-369, to connect I-69 in Tenaha to I-30 in Texarkana.[5] The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) approved the designation on May 24, 2013,[6] and the Texas Transportation Commission followed suit on May 30, 2013.[7] This action also finalized the designations of other Interstates in Texas.[6] This action meant that the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) could commence the signing of I-369, as well as the other route segments cited, at their discretion. The signage was installed and revealed on September 23, 2013.[2] New signage that included exit numbers and mileposts[8] corresponding to the whole proposed length was installed the week of June 22, 2020.[9]

Future

The status of the Texarkana to Tenaha segment is unfinished; it is currently only in the planning and development stage. The proposed route of I-369 is to go from State Highway Loop 151 (Loop 151) in Texarkana, following US 59 to the junction of US 59/US 84/future I-69 in Tenaha. It may also be extended north from its current terminus at I-30 to a future interchange with I-49 north of Texarkana, which would be about 120 miles (190 km) when completed.

A proposed route of I-369 in the Marshall area has the Interstate running east of the city and using part of the existing Loop 390 corridor.[10] Loop 390 will be extended south from US 80 east of Marshall southward to I-20 and will be built to Interstate standards in anticipation of a future I-369 designation. The extension is slated to begin construction in 2025.[11]
