New county road shield needed[edit]

I-22 was just extended to the new Co. Hwy. 77/Coalburg Rd. exit in Jefferson County, Ala. We need a shield made for the county road. Who has been doing that for us? - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 20:28, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please take it to WP:USRD/S/R; this is not the place to ask for it. --Rschen7754 (T C) 21:12, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Map needed[edit]

A map, even a rudimentary one, would be of immense benefit to this item.Eregli bob (talk) 02:02, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed interstate still?[edit]

This is listed still as a proposed interstate but the article is written like it already exists in some way. I am just looking for clarification because the infobox header shows green, but if it still unsigned then it should be orange. What is I-22 current standing? --WashuOtaku (talk) 13:49, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to this article part of the highway in Alabama has I-22 signs up. So it seems to be partially open at least. Some earlier articles said I-22 would not be declared open until the interchange with I-65 in Birmingham was completed. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:58, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! --WashuOtaku (talk) 19:04, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I-22 was completed as of today 6-20-2016, members of the Alabama dept of transportation formally opened all of I-22 as the I-65 interchange has been completed Clintfranks78 (talk) 00:57, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That needs a source to back it per Wikipedia policies. -Fnlayson (talk) 01:25, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, here's an article about the opening: "Interstate 22 Interchange Opens..." -Fnlayson (talk) 01:49, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, now edit the article by adding the reference to it. --WashuOtaku (talk) 02:47, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Chill out. June 20 is already stated as the planned opening date in the Alabama section. The text has been updated using the article above. -Fnlayson (talk) 12:19, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Routing specifics in Birmingham[edit]

The article states that US 78 continues along I-22 to its intersection with I-65? Doesn't it leave the route with AL-5 at exit 85? Mccunicano (talk) 00:56, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Extensions to Georgia and Arkansas?[edit]

Look at this webpage, and scroll down to the map about halfway through. It shows potential extensions of I-22 through Columbus, GA, and then on across South Georgia. And in the other direction, going into Arkansas. Possibly towards Kansas City? Unfortunately, there is no source given. Has anyone else heard of these potential extensions? Is the map (posted anonymously on a message board) enough of a source to include something in this wikipedia article? Thoughts and comments would be appreciated.

Message board posts and other user editable pages are not reliable sources on Wikipedia. There needs to be some reports on this from media outlets. The message board post implies campaign promises/plans originally from some 10 years ago. I can't get the dashlerforgov.com link to open here at work. -Fnlayson (talk) 16:03, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Concur with Fnlayson, there needs to be more solid information that can be referenced. --WashuOtaku (talk) 16:10, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I-22 extended to I-240[edit]

I’m not sure exactly when this occurred, but if you pull up a map of Memphis, you can see that I-22 has now been extended to I-240 and not just I-269. Therefore all references to its ending at I-269 need to be updated, as well as all references to its being solely in Mississippi and Alabama. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Legofan613 (talk • contribs) 16:48, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What map are you looking at that shows I-22 ending at I-240 in Memphis? Google maps shows I-22 ending at I-269 in Byhalia, though this might not be a current map. -Fnlayson (talk) 17:19, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with Fnlayson. StreetView photography from April 2018 shows no road construction going on along US 78. I know construction crews are good, but not that good. –Fredddie ™ 17:54, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Here is US 78 at I-240. It's an undivided 5-lane boulevard. That's not interstate standards. I believe that, on some planning maps, I-78 between I-269 and I-240 may be designated as Future I-22, but it certainly isn't there yet. --Jayron 32 18:14, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unsinged I-22 Bussiness Spur Route[edit]

Does I-22 have a unsigned business spur after passing I-269 and west end of I-22? 69.1.39.81 (talk) 18:03, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Exit list[edit]

Should the mile numbers listed for I-22 in Mississippi in the exit list be changed to match the mileposts? Since the are just based on U.S. 78's mileage in Mississippi, and since it sourced with Google maps, going onto street view will show you that I-22's mileposts and exit numbers are just the existing ones of U.S. 78.
