Traffic shift planned Thursday on S.R. 45/46 at I-69 in Bloomington

BLOOMINGTON, Ind.— Milestone Contractors will shift all S.R. 45/46 traffic to newly-constructed westbound lanes near I-69 in Bloomington on or after Thursday, August 15, weather permitting, to begin the next phase of a $5 million pavement replacement project that began in June.

Existing eastbound lanes will be closed throughout this phase of the project. All traffic will shift to westbound lanes, with one lane in each direction.

Exit ramps to and from I-69 on the north side of S.R. 45/46 will reopen Thursday, while ramps on the south side will close.

S.R. 46 EB to I-69 SB will remain open. The left turn lane from S.R. 46 WB to I-69 SB will remain closed.

Access to I-69 SB from S.R. 46 WB will continue via U-turn at the Curry Pike intersection, west of I-69. 

The traffic shift and ramp closures are scheduled to be in place for approximately 75 days.

INDOT is working with Indiana University throughout the project to coordinate ramp closures during upcoming high-traffic events. No ramp closures will occur on the dates listed below:

• Noon on Friday, August 16, through sunrise on Monday, August 26, 2019
