The Indiana Department of Transportation has announced upcoming lane restrictions on State Road 32 starting on or after Monday, July 31 for bridge work on the west side of Lebanon.
The median and turn lanes will be restricted over Dierks Ditch, approximately 0.51 miles west of Interstate 65. This is between Westgate Boulevard and Enterprise Boulevard. Traffic will be shifted onto the shoulders during this time.
This is the first phase of the bridge project. Crews will perform HMA Overlays on the median and inside lanes. They will perform bridge deck overlays on the bridge and bridge approach slabs. These restrictions are expected to last through mid-August, weather permitting.
Then, on or after Wednesday, Aug. 9, crews will restrict the outside travel lanes and shoulder for Phase 2 in the same area. Traffic will be shifted to the inside travel lanes and left-turn lanes. The remaining bridge work will be done during this phase. The restrictions are expected to last through the end of August, weather permitting.
This contract was awarded to Rieth Riley Construction for over $6.7 million. It’s expected to be completed in November 2023. INDOT reminds motorists to slow down, use caution and consider worker safety when traveling through all work zones.
