We are those impacted by the link 101 project

residents of southeastern Indiana

This website and the many efforts of Stop Link1 101, to advocate against the Link 101 Corridor Project, are operated by residents of Southeastern, Indiana. This includes those who might be directly impacted by the Link 101 Route, neighbors, friends, family and concerned citizens. 

We reject the Link 101 Corridor project, including any alternative build options. We are not in favor of the project and wish to see the Southeastern Indiana farms, homesteads and habitats for wildlife spared from highway builds, increased freight and commuter traffic. 

01

Destruction of the countryside

The Link 101 Corridor Project will include a 44 wide roadway and shoulder. This highway will carve through the landscape, wildlife habitats, farms and homesteads of Southeastern, Indiana citizens.

02

Increased traffic

The Link 101 Corridor Project will bring significant traffic through Southeastern, Indiana that otherwise would be maintained on existing highways between Kentucky and Ohio. This includes freight and commuter traffic across a two lane highway with a shoulder on either side.

03

sprawl and displacement

The Link 101 Corridor Project will open the opportunity to create sprawl throughout the countryside of Indiana - this may include increased building, infrastructure and more that are characteristic of cityscapes. If the build occurs, homesteads and farms will be lost or affected, potentially displacing residents and destroying generations of family-owned land.
