INDOT Encourages Drivers to use Alternate Routes for IU Game
Leave early, plan for
delays on way to Saturday’s game
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (Sept. 22, 2017) – The Indiana
Department of Transportation (INDOT) strongly encourages fans to use alternate
routes to get to Saturday’s Indiana University football game against the
Georgia Southern Eagles. SR 37 remains under construction from just south of
Martinsville to just south of Bloomington, with a posted 45 mph speed limit
throughout the entire construction zone.
INDOT urges drivers to use I-65 to SR 46 or SR 67
to SR 46 as alternate routes to IU’s game on Saturday. Travel on SR 37 is
restricted to one lane in each direction from Legendary Drive to Chambers Pike
in the northern section of the I-69 Section 5 construction zone.
If
fans plan to use SR 37 as their route, they are urged to follow the posted 45
mph speed limit, leave plenty of room between vehicles and be aware of changing
traffic patterns.
All
motorists traveling through the I-69 Section 5 construction zone should expect
delays throughout the weekend.
