I-69 Major Moves 2020 Construction Details Presented
Milestone Contractors and United Consulting with the Indiana Department
of Transportation (INDOT) hosted a public meeting Thursday at Hamilton Southeastern High School to present construction details about the upcoming I-69 Major Moves 2020 project that will:
- Resurface 15 miles of existing interstate pavement;
- Rehabilitate existing interstate bridges and drainage structures;
- Add a third travel lane to the interstate median in each direction from State Road 37 (Exit 205) in Fishers to north of State Road 38 (Exit 214) in Pendleton;
- Add a southbound lane to the right outside shoulder between the 116th Street entrance ramp and the future 106th Street exit ramp, which is currently under construction;
- Reconfigure the Campus Parkway interchange (Exit 210) into a double crossover diamond design to improve traffic flow;
- Widen the Campus Parkway bridge over I-69;
- Rebuild and lower the State Road 13 (Exit 214) pavement under I-69;
- Rehabilitate the Brooks School Road and Madison County Road 650W bridges over I-69
Interstate 69 construction
Milestone Contractors plans to begin work to patch and resurface existing pavement as early as next week. Weather permitting, overnight (9 p.m. to 6 a.m.) single-lane closures will begin on or after Tuesday, April 26 on northbound and southbound I-69 between Exit 205 and Exit 210. Two lanes will remain open during peak daytime travel times.
The speed limit on I-69 through the work zone will be reduced to 60 mph and further reduced to 50 mph when workers are present.
After existing pavement is resurfaced, crews will begin work to rehabilitate existing interstate bridges. Beginning in June, traffic lanes between Exit 205 and Exit 210 will be shifted away from the median to set temporary concrete barrier wall and begin construction of the added travel lane.
Campus Parkway (Exit 210)
Construction at the Campus Parkway (Exit 210) interchange is scheduled to begin after Independence Day (July 4). The first phase of construction will prepare for shifting traffic into a double-crossover diamond configuration, which is intended to improve traffic flow during widening of the bridge and construction of the permanent improvements.
The entire project is anticipated to be complete by the end of 2017. Additional information about construction schedules will be announced in the future.
