The freeway begins at an interchange with I-37 west of the bayfront area of Corpus Christi. It heads south from the interchange to an interchange with SH 44 which provides access to Corpus Christi International Airport. It continues to the south and begins to turn to the southeast just prior to a junction with FM 665 (Old Brownsville Road).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Interstate 169 (Texas)</span> Auxiliary Interstate Highway in Texas

Interstate 169 (I-169) is an auxiliary route of I-69E in Texas that currently runs from I-69E in Brownsville southeast concurrently with State Highway 550 (SH 550), a toll road under construction that connects to the Port of Brownsville for 1.5 miles (2.4 km). When SH 550 is complete, it will be a limited-access toll route around the northern and eastern edges of Brownsville and signed as I-169, partly replacing and expanding Farm to Market Road 511 (FM 511). Its purpose is to provide a new entry point for truck traffic to the Port of Brownsville and forming a loop that allows traffic to bypass the northern sections of the urbanized extent of the Brownsville city limits. This may serve as a relief route for future traffic congestion and as a future business corridor.
