Interstate 2

I had seen similar proposals to bypass Sullivan City to the South. I don't know what has happened to those plans or the status of them.

US-83 within the town of Sullivan City is on too narrow an alignment to upgrade to a proper freeway -at least not without buying and demolishing dozens of properties on either side of the highway.
