The Indiana Department of Transportation has announced the closure of State Road 47 for road reconstruction near Sheridan.

Beginning on or after Monday, Sept. 22, SR 47 will close between County Line Road and Wesco Parkway for approximately one month. During this closure, the official detour will follow State Road 38 to U.S. 421.

This is the first phase of work on the SR 47 Roadway Improvement Project, which aims to reconstruct SR 47 from County Line Road east to SR 38 and build a roundabout at the intersection of SR 47 and SR 38 on the southeast side of town. You can learn more about the project at bit.ly/SR47Sheridan.

INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, avoid distractions, and use extra caution while traveling in and around work zones. All work is weather-dependent, and schedules are subject to change.
