Pavement Overlay to Begin on U.S. 41 Bridges in Vincennes
KNOX COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana
Department of Transportation announces lane restrictions for the U.S. 41 Bridges
over the CSX Railroad tracks in Vincennes.
Beginning on or around April 4,
contractors will begin working on the bridge located near the Carghill grain
bin between the Hart and Willow Street exits. Both the north and southbound
lanes will be restricted to one 12-foot lane of traffic while workers perform a
rehabilitation of the bridges. Work, including cleaning and hot mix asphalt
overlay, is expected to start in the driving lane and shift to the passing
lane.
The project is scheduled to last
until mid-July, depending upon weather conditions. During that time,
restrictions will be in place around the clock. Loads over 12 feet wide should
use an alternate route. This is one of three bridge projects currently taking
place in Knox County. Read about the other two at https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/INDOT/bulletins/13c3821.
INDOT urges drivers to slow down
and stay alert near crews. For construction updates and traffic alerts, follow
