  • Interstate 49: Origin, Planning, Construction
    Interstate 49: Origin, Planning, Construction Interstate 49 had its inception in the 1970s when business leaders and highway officials in Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana began discussing the need for a new north-south interstate through the center of the United States. The new interstate would connect south-central Canada and the Gulf Coast in southern Louisiana and generate economic and safe- ty benefits in every state along the way. The goal was less congestion to improve the flow of goods and people and attract more commerce from businesses seeking to locate or expand in communities with an interstate highway nearby. With access only at interchanges and no more at-grade intersections, driving would be safer. In the mid-1970s, the Federal Highway Administration approved an interstate highway in western Louisiana to connect I-10 at Lafayette and I-20 at Shreveport, a distance of 212 miles. Construction in Louisiana began in the early 1980s and was completed in 1996. The first 32-mile segment of that 212 miles was completed in 1984 and became the first stretch of I-49 in the nation. In the meantime, Missouri and Arkansas officials were working to improve the U.S. 71 corridor to eventually achieve interstate highway standards. Arkansas built several segments, including what is known as I-540 between Bentonville and Fort Smith, which was opened to traffic in 1999. Starting in the 1970s, Missouri began the process of four-laning U.S. 71 south of Nevada, Mo. Into the 1980s,1990s and 2000s, projects included building four-lane freeway sections of U.S.
