===Planning and alignment selection=== A beltway for [[Indianapolis, Indiana|Indianapolis]] was part of the original plan of the Interstate Highway System in 1955. The general alignment was to be either on or adjacent to the now-defunct [[Indiana State Road 100|SR 100]], which, by then, had only two completed legsโon the north side, along 86th Street west of the [[White River (Indiana)|White River]] and 82nd Street east of the river, and on the east side, along Shadeland Avenue. On the city's west side, an alignment corridor paralleling High School Road was preferred, and, on the south side, one between Hanna Avenue and Thompson Road had been proposed. Development along 86th Street made its use unfeasible for I-465, so a 91st Street alignment was initially proposed. This proved to be controversial and caused many delays in final alignment selection for the north leg, postponing its construction by several years.<ref name=Ripple1975>Ripple, David Alan.
