CalTrans just spent several million dollars to redesign South Weed Boulevard, installing two traffic lights in the process, rather than bypass Weed, as it should have been done years ago when it was cheaper.

Maybe not in Oregon but maybe in California.  California 99 through the central valley is being upgraded to an interstate-standard freeway from I-5 near the Grapevine to Stockton.  Some have said the proposed number for this new Interstate is I-7.

More like people in the Willamette Valley.

I wonder why not call it I-9?  It seems to be more mnemonically sensible...

IIRC, that was the number tossed around when it was initially reported that CA 99 was being upgraded with the intent of becoming an Interstate.
