I-69 adds 200 miles, Markle exit to become 286

The I-69 expansion in southern Indiana will add 200 miles to the interstate, cutting across the state. Due to federal regulations, exit numbering must begin at the southern-most point in the interstate; Exit 0 in Indianapolis will become Exit 200 and Exit 86 at Markle becomes Exit 286, as exits all the way up through the Michigan-Indiana line will just add 200.
