Tapp Road interchange
to open to traffic tomorrow
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (May 31, 2018) – The Tapp Road interchange is
scheduled to open to traffic tomorrow, June 1, at 8 p.m. All travel lanes and
on and off ramps will be unrestricted. The interchange will open with temporary
pavement markings that will be replaced with permanent striping on Monday, June
4, under flagging operations.
Mainline paving continues
on SR 37 from south of Rockport Road to the Vernal Pike overpass, which may temporarily
place ramps to SR 37 from Fullerton Pike, Tapp Road, 2nd Street and
3rd Street in a Yield condition. Motorists are reminded that Yield
signs indicate a driver should approach with caution, come to a complete stop
if necessary and only continue onto the highway if the way is clear.
The opening of the
Tapp Road interchange is expected to alleviate some of the east-west traffic
congestion caused by lane restrictions on the 2nd Street and 3rd
Street bridges.Motorists are encouraged
to use Fullerton Pike, Tapp Road, Vernal Pike and SR 46 for cross town trips.
