I-69 lane restrictions cause overnight backups

Posted: Updated:
FISHERS -

INDOT has begun new lane restrictions on Interstate 69 at the 116th Street and State Road 37 interchange in Fishers. It's part of "Operation Indy Commute" project.

Overnight lane closures created long lines of traffic as drivers made their way through the construction zone. Those lane restrictions along northbound I-69 will allow highway crews to prepare for construction of the new interchange.

The overnight lane restrictions from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Saturday will last through mid-June on northbound I-69 and State Road 37 to place pavement and widen the northbound outside shoulder.
 
Since no roads will be closed, there is no official detour for this part of the project.
 
Construction this year will focus on I-69 near the State Road 37 interchange and the northbound entrance and exit ramps. Work will resume in 2013 on the southbound interchange area and adding lanes to I-69 between I-465 and 116th Street.
