From Wikipedia:
Interstate 73 (I-73) is a north-south Interstate Highway, located within the U.S. state of North Carolina. It is part of a longer planned corridor, defined by various federal laws to run from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, but only the part south of West Virginia is under study as of 2012. The corridor passes through the states of South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, and Michigan. Ohio and Michigan do not plan to build any part of the highway, as the I-73 corridor in both of these states is already served by existing freeways or four-lane highways that will eventually be upgraded to freeways. West Virginia is building its section, mostly along U.S. Highway 52, as a four-lane divided highway, but not meeting the Interstate Highway standards. On the other hand, North Carolina and South Carolina have built sections and Virginia plans to build its part. Thus Interstate 73 will, once scheduled projects are completed, run from South Carolina to Roanoke, Virginia, where it will end at Interstate 81. Associated with these plans are those for the extension of Interstate 74 from Cincinnati to Myrtle Beach, with several highway overlaps contemplated.
Currently, there is one continuous section of Interstate 73, totaling 93.5 miles (150.5 km), first traversing the US 220 freeway 70.0 miles (112.7 km) from Ellerbe, North Carolina to I-85 in Greensboro, North Carolina then along the southwestern segment of the Greensboro Outer Loop 12 miles (19 km) from US 220 to Bryan Blvd., then 9.5 miles (15.3 km) along a freeway from Bryan Blvd west then north to US 220 near Summerfield, North Carolina.

Interstate 73 looks like a nice looking Interstate highway

[@shir60bhushan]

Superb , I have seen most of your videos specially related to Atlanta

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Glad to hear that. More Atlanta area videos coming soon!

[@cicsstopmotions315]

I’ve heard about your new Little Five Points in Atlanta,Georgia,you should check out Almond,NC around the Fontana Lake

[@coreysmith8560]

I wonder if South Carolina is going to build Interstate 73.

[@DaxDeath1]

They did build me back in 1997 in may 1997 they moved me to North Carolina

[@focusstrider2390]

My favorite interstate!

[@cicsstopmotions315]

You should also do I-74/US-74 in Rockingham to Laurinburg

[@nelcievoltaire722]

You should do I-840 in the future

[@DaxDeath1]

So those who don’t know in 1997 me and my brother I-74 was in South Carolina in may of 1997 they moved us to North Carolina

[@cicsstopmotions315]

[@rjmcallister1888]

North Carolina. Never met an Interstate it didn't like.

[@itsyourboytrippy6201]

For I-295 BELTWAY at Jacksonville do the inner please

[@MileageMikeTravels]

What makes you prefer inner over the outer?

[@itsyourboytrippy6201]

Let me tell you about this of 295 the highway is like a loop around the jacksonville it becomes West - East - North - South on each side in that beltway or which I don't care which you want to do it has some express lanes for the Inner of West and the outer of the express lanes is East.

[@itsyourboytrippy6201]

But I want it the full route.

[@cicsstopmotions315]

You should do Great Smoky Mountains Expressway,not a toll road

[@cicsstopmotions315]

It’s in Waynesville,Sylvia,Bryson City and Cherokee,NC

[@thunderbird1921]

They want to expand this Interstate clear to Roanoke, VA in the future. How they'll do it though is beyond me.

[@MileageMikeTravels]

I personally don’t see it getting built outside NC at this point. Virginia doesn’t seem interested in spending money to build it.

[@thunderbird1921]

@@MileageMikeTravels Not only that, Roanoke simply isn't built to have a highway like that. I lived in the area for a year, they literally have a route-interstate hybrid road serving as the only major highway through the city. It's a nightmare to drive on. They'd have to tear out half the businesses along it on the south side of the city and county to install an I-73 expansion. Urban and even suburban planning is going in the toilet in this country.
