* Updated with New Information as of June 22, 2025.
Color Key: Complete, Complete, but not signed as Interstate, Under Construction, Funded Future Project, Unfunded Project or Not Listed in STIP.
* Dates from NCDOT's Draft State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) 2026-2035 (January 2025) and are subject to change. The STIP includes all projects funded from 2026 to 2035. Projects thus not included in the STIP have an assumed starting date after 2035.
** For completed and under construction projects only.
*** NCDOT received a waiver to have the segment signed as a full interstate when the I-73/74 Asheboro construction project (I-73 Segment 8) was completed in October 2012, signing took place in October 2013.

1. Though the road is signed as an interstate, work is still needed on widening the shoulders on the southern end to meet interstate standards. This project was to start in 2011 but has been delayed (again) to after 2029 in latest STIP revision, and this for only the segment from NC 211 south to Alt. US 220.

2. There are remaining project to improve interchanges and/or bridges in this segment, but NCDOT was not required by the FHWA to complete these improvements for the route to be signed as an interstate.

3. Though built to interstate standards, this segment was not made part of the Interstate system until work to upgrade US 220 to interstate standards through Asheboro was complete. Though the exit signs were updated to interstate standards in the summer of 2013, the project also called for putting up official I-73 and I-74 signage (and removing US 220 signs), this was completed in December 2013.

4. Route will be signed as I-74 after Beltway is completed in 2026.

d-On May 21, 2018 AASHTO's Special Committee on US Route Numbering approved NCDOT's request to decommission US 311 from I-73 in Randleman, along I-74 through High Point to where it currently meets US 52 in Winston-Salem. I will leave the shields up on this page until NCDOT removes the signs in each segment, Segment 6 signs were removed in April 2020.
