SEC. ___. SONORAN CORRIDOR INTERSTATE DEVELOPMENT.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds that the designation of the
Sonoran Corridor Interstate connecting Interstate 19 to
Interstate 10 south of the Tucson International Airport as a
future part of the Interstate System would--
(1) enhance direct linkage between major trading routes
connecting growing ports, agricultural regions,
infrastructure and manufacturing centers, and existing high
priority corridors of the National Highway System; and
(2) significantly improve connectivity on the future
Interstate 11 and the CANAMEX Corridor, a route directly
linking the United States with Mexico and Canada.
(b) High Priority Corridors on National Highway System.--
Section 1105(c) of the Intermodal Surface Transportation
Efficiency Act of 1991 (105 Stat. 2032; 119 Stat. 1210) is
amended by adding at the end the following:
``(81) State Route 410, the Sonoran Corridor connecting
Interstate 19 to Interstate 10 south of the Tucson
International Airport.''.
(c) Future Parts of Interstate System.--Section
1105(e)(5)(A) of the Intermodal Surface Transportation
Efficiency Act of 1991 (105 Stat. 2033; 119 Stat. 1213) is
amended in the first sentence by striking ``and subsection
(c)(57)'' and inserting ``subsection (c)(57), and subsection
(c)(81)''.
