CarmelLink summer construction updates
The City of Carmel works diligently with consultants, contractors, utilities and others to develop schedules and complete projects in a timely manner. Despite these efforts there are times that delays, conflicts and procurement issues can have impacts to these schedules beyond our control. We greatly appreciate your patience while we work to make the roadways safer and more efficient.
CarmelLink Construction Projects
West Smoky Row Reconstruction: This project includes the reconstruction of Smoky Row Road, west of Range Line Road, including a new bridge over Little Cool Creek. Delays to the bridge construction will keep the road closed past the start of school. The project is expected to be substantially complete and open to traffic before the year ends.
East Smoky Row slip lane at Keystone Parkway: This work will continue through October with no scheduled closures of the intersection.
Main Street Roundabouts (Richland/Lexington) at Carmel High School: Roundabout work at Richland Avenue is anticipated to be substantially complete and open to traffic before school starts August 10. The south side of the new Lexington Boulevard roundabout will be under construction as school begins with two-way traffic maintained on Main Street north of the construction. The Lexington Boulevard roundabout is anticipated to be complete in October with a scheduled traffic switch in mid-September to complete the north side of the roundabout.
