The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) - Corpus Christi District unveiled the first I-69 highway signs during an event held on Dec 5th. While the cold weather was readily noted, it did not deter many from attending the unveiling. The I-69 signs will mark the first six mile segment of the newly designated Interstate 69 situated in Robstown, Texas from State Highway 44 to Interstate 37.

TxDOT District Engineer John A. Casey introduced federal, state and local dignitaries and others that have been instrumental in the fruition of this project.

Included among the speakers and dignitaries available at the event were Texas Transportation Commission member Fred Underwood, Congressman Blake Farenthold, State Senator Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa, State Representatives Connie Scott and Raul Torres, Chairman Judge John Thompson - Alliance for I-69 Texas, Judy Hawley - Chair of the State I-69 Corridor Advisory Board and San Patricio County Judge Terry Simpson - Chair of the Segment 5 Committee.

Note: A Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 was used to capture this event. Without a tablet tripod shaking was unavoidable and holding the Samsung Tab steady for over 30 minutes in cold numbing weather wasn't easy. The wind gust was just as bad so expect some microphone wind noise. Editing software did a very good job of stabilizing the video, please enjoy.
