Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Superior Construction Co, Inc. will begin work on 61st Ave over I-65 on or after Monday, April 21.
61st Ave will have alternating lane closures through early September for a bridge deck overlay preventative maintenance project over I-65.
During phase one through early July, the outside right lanes will be closed, and traffic will be shifted to the left. Phase one will also result in the closure of the ramps from westbound 61st Ave to southbound I-65 and eastbound 61st Ave to northbound I-65. Motorists should utilize the ramps at Ridge Rd or U.S. 30 as detours.
INDOT encourages drivers to allow extra time when driving through this area and follow traffic directions carefully. Motorists should slow down, exercise caution and drive distraction-free through all work zones.
