Lane Closures Set to Begin for Paving Project on U.S. 41 in Evansville
VANDERBURGH COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana
Department of Transportation announces lane closures for U.S. 41 in Evansville
for a pavement reconstruction project.
Beginning on or around Monday, June
27, contractors will close the right-hand travel lanes of both north and
southbound U.S. 41 from about half a mile south of the I-69 Interchange to
Virginia Street. Crews will work to rehabilitate the concrete sub-grade of the
road way and will also perform milling and repaving. Shifts to the left-hand
lane are expected by late August or early September.
All work is expected to last late
into the fall, but be complete by the end of the construction season. During
that time lane closures will be in place around the clock. Drivers should
expect traffic delays, and plan accordingly. INDOT urges motorists to follow
the speed limits set in the work zone and stay alert near crews.
