The Pendleton area could become the northern end of a new central Indiana toll road loop if a proposal by Gov. Mitch Daniels becomes reality. The 75-mile Indiana Commerce Connector, would start at Interstate 69 near Pendleton. It would run south to Shelbyville, east to Martinsville, and connect with Interstate 70 near Mooresville.
Is this good for Madison County? What you do think about losing farmland? Bringing in more businesses to the Pendleton exit? Which exit should the proposed toll road be linked to: Pendleton/Anderson or Pendleton/Noblesville?

Indiana Commerce Connector
What is the Indiana Commerce Connector?
The Indiana Commerce Connector would be a 75-80 mile outer loop around the northeast, east, and south sides of Indianapolis. This tolled highway would run from Interstate 69 near Pendleton, past Greenfield, Shelbyville, Franklin, Martinsville, and terminate west of the Indianapolis International Airport. It would intersect with Interstates 70, 74, 65 and 69, and other major state highways. The Indiana Commerce Connector will be a public asset owned by the State of Indiana. -
Toll Free Interstate 69 (Evansville to Indianapolis)
Why is Interstate 69, between Evansville and Indianapolis, so important?
The highway will provide the opportunity for economic development to an area that lags behind the state and nation in job creation and personal income. When companies look to expand or relocate their operations, a key determining factor is the area’s access to interstates. Also, an interstate highway will increase safety and reduce travel times. The need for a connection between the state’s third largest city and the state capital was first identified in the early 1940s. - Toll Road: Your Opinion What do you think of Governor Daniels' proposed toll road plan?
