This branch of I-69 has been called "I-69 Central" in some planning documents. If built at all, it will probably carry an Interstate spur designation or continue to use the U.S. 281 designation.
From McAllen, this corridor follows U.S. 281 north to near George West, where it combines with the Laredo corridor and follows U.S. 59 northeast to Victoria.
