It makes sense to plan for and acquire the corridor of the future long before it is needed. In simple terms we need to project populations increases and assess the need. It would of course make sense to acquire the corridor long before it is needed, while land values are lower. But developing a consensus on where the corridor should be located and when to acquire the corridor is very difficult.
Florida is working on long range corridor planning. The links below show the progress to date.
Florida is of course developing very rapidly on both coasts. It seems logical that new interstate routes should be developed inland from both coasts.
There is a good argument for combining the road corridor with public utility and environmental corridors. So instead of acquiring a 300 feet wide corridor for the interstate, it may make sense to acquire a wider corridor. Uses of the corridor right of way would be used for the road, possible future transit routes, open space protection, trails and bikeways, flood control and wetland mitigation, and gas pipelines and electric utilities.
