US Route 287, stretching from Texas to Montana, would become Interstate I-47.
A new bill would officially change United States Route 287 into Interstate I-47. This change could lead to better road quality and clearer signs for drivers between Port Arthur, Texas, and Choteau, Montana. It might also help local economies along the route.
Today, United States Route 287 from Port Arthur, Texas, to Choteau, Montana, is a regular U.S. highway. If this bill becomes law, this route would first be designated as a High Priority Corridor. Then, it would officially become Interstate Route I-47.
