===Massachusetts plans=== Since 1996, the [[Massachusetts Highway Department]] (MassHighway) has studied rebuilding the interchange of I-93 and I-95 in [[Woburn, Massachusetts|Woburn]] along the border with [[Stoneham, Massachusetts|Stoneham]] and [[Reading, Massachusetts|Reading]].<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.9395info.com/overview.asp |title = I-93\I-95 Interchange Transportation Study |access-date = October 4, 2014 |archive-date = February 27, 2009 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090227132919/http://www.9395info.com/overview.asp |url-status = dead }}</ref> The project was expected to start in early 2017 and cost $267 million but continued community opposition has postponed the project indefinitely.<ref>{{cite web |title = Woburn–Reading–Stoneham–Wakefield– Interchange Improvements to I-93/I-95 |url = http://www.mhd.state.ma.us/ProjectInfo/Main.asp?ACTION=ViewProject&PROJECT_NO=605605 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130616015526/http://www.mhd.state.ma.us/ProjectInfo/Main.asp?ACTION=ViewProject&PROJECT_NO=605605 |archive-date = June 16, 2013 }}</ref> A project to upgrade the interchange of I-93 and I-95 in [[Canton, Massachusetts|Canton]] is also proposed. An additional 2010 proposal to upgrade [[Massachusetts Route 24|Route 24]], running southwards from I-93 exit 4 in [[Randolph, Massachusetts|Randolph]] to [[Interstate 195 (Rhode Island–Massachusetts)|I-195]] near [[Fall River, Massachusetts|Fall River]], has also been put off due to studies showing the cost of the project being very high.{{cn|date=June 2023}} MassDOT and its predecessor MassHighway have planned on widening I-93 to a uniform four travel lanes in both directions from the lane drop near exit 35 (formerly 41) in [[Wilmington, Massachusetts|Wilmington]] to the New Hampshire border since the beginning of the 2000s.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://andoverma.gov/planning/i93/ |title = I-93/Lowell Junction Development Area Background |access-date = October 4, 2014 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140702060912/http://andoverma.gov/planning/i93/ |archive-date = July 2, 2014 }}</ref> The first section of widening will be done as part of the I-93 Tri-Town Interchange Project. The project will construct a new interchange in Wilmington. I-93 will be widened from three to four lanes in each direction from exit 35 (formerly 41) to I-495, a distance of approximately {{convert|5|mi|km|0}}, as the first phase in widening I-93 from exit 35 (formerly 41) to the New Hampshire state line. Early estimates of the entire project place the cost at $567 million.<ref name="br-anderson">{{cite web |last = Anderson |first = Steve |title = Northern Expressway |url = http://www.bostonroads.com/roads/northern/ |work = BostonRoads.com |access-date = May 22, 2010 }}{{self-published inline|certain=yes|date=May 2022}}</ref>
