Sagamore Parkway Bridge Project will Close North River Road

Contractor will be setting beams

TIPPECANOE COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces North River Road (Old State Road 43) will close on or after Monday, November 20 at 6 a.m. through Wednesday, November 22 at noon for the contractor to facilitate access for beams and to position the cranes.  North River Road will close again on Monday, November 27 through Thursday, December 7 for the placement of the bridge beams.  There will also be minor traffic interruptions on Sagamore Parkway during this week as well.

The detour will follow Soldiers Home Road to Kalberer Road to Morehouse Road to Sagamore Parkway to U.S. 52/231 and back.

The Sagamore Parkway eastbound Bridge over the Wabash River will be replaced with a new, approximately 938-foot long, eight span bridge on the existing alignment. The new superstructure would be a concrete bulb tee design.  The new bridge will provide two 12-foot travel lanes, standard shoulders (6-foot left and 11-foot right), and a multi-use trail on the bridge deck with accommodation for connections to a future multi-use trail on the south side of the road.

This project was awarded to Superior Construction Co. Inc. for $13.39 million.  The project is scheduled for completion in June of 2019, it is anticipated the new bridge will be open for traffic in the summer of 2018.
