Durant Daily Democrat - TEX 21 discusses the future of Highway 69 75

Texoma towns discuss turning Hwy 75/69 into an interstate

Task force working to make U.S. Highway 75 an Interstate | Herald Democrat

69/75 runs right through my hometown of Durant, so it'll be interesting to see what comes of this. Most of the highway is already interstate status from downtown Dallas to the Oklahoma border. Not so much in Oklahoma, though. It'll take a TON of work to get the highway to interstate status because 69/75 runs through towns at-grade, with stoplights and such.
