Carmel details summer & fall infrastructure projects

Submitted by City of Noblesville

This summer’s construction schedule features a wide range of infrastructure enhancements, including major corridor and road reconstructions, new multi-use pathway connections, the installation of safety-oriented raised pedestrian crosswalks and foundational improvements in the Merchants Square area – with several additional capital projects already scheduled to begin in 2027.

As with all major infrastructure initiatives, scheduled timelines are estimates and subject to change based on weather, utility coordination and unforeseen circumstances. City officials appreciate the community’s continued patience as these vital projects are completed. Several key projects are highlighted below.

Roundabout & intersection upgrades

• East 106th Street & Westfield Boulevard (July to October): A full intersection closure is scheduled for the construction of a brand-new roundabout and a crucial culvert replacement near East 109th Street.
• Hoover Road & West 116th Street (August to November): Expect a full closure at this intersection later this summer for the construction of a new roundabout aimed at improving traffic flow and safety.

Key corridors

• West Main Street reconstruction (June to November): Utility relocation is underway with the roadway reconstruction from Old Meridian to Guilford Road to begin once utilities have completed. While partial road closures will occur, local access will be strictly maintained throughout the project.
• Monon Boulevard Phase III & North College Avenue: Continued expansion and utility work on these vital corridors will progress steadily through the remainder of 2026.
• Merchants Square improvements (July to September): Enhancements kick off this summer at 116th Street and AAA Way, marking the first phase of multi-year upgrades to the retail area’s infrastructure.

Focus on pedestrian safety & connectivity

• Raised pedestrian crosswalks (June to September): To protect pedestrians and slow traffic, the City has been installing raised crosswalks at six major roundabouts along Hazel Dell Parkway and Gray Road. The following three roundabouts for completion are: 116th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway; Cherry Creek Boulevard and Hazel Dell Parkway; Main Street and Gray Road.

New multi-use paths

Carmel’s trail network continues to grow with construction on the Westfield Boulevard Path (99th St. to 116th St.) running through October.
