On November 15, 2013, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced that 20.70 miles (33.31 km) of I-164 would be renumbered I-69, an action completed in late 2014. The highway thereby became part of an extended I-69 whose route will run north from the Texas border with Mexico to the Michigan border with Canada near Port Huron.
