Interstate 169 (I-169) is a 34.271-mile-long (55.154 km) auxiliary Interstate Highway that travels along the former southern section of the Pennyrile Parkway in Kentucky. U.S. President Donald Trump signed the I-169 designation into law on May 7, 2017,[3][4] and the highway was officially re-signed and redesignated as I-169 in December 2024, following its upgrade to Interstate Highway standards.[2] It travels north from a trumpet interchange with I-24 south of Hopkinsville to a cloverleaf interchange with its parent, I-69, and the Western Kentucky Parkway near Nortonville.
