Bridge work continues on I-94 east of Johnson Rd

LAPORTE COUNTY, Ind. - Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Rieth-Riley Construction Co. will change the traffic pattern on I-94 between Exit 34 and Exit 40 (U.S. 421 and U.S. 20/35) on or after Wednesday, July 20. 

The two left lanes and shoulders in both the eastbound and westbound directions will be closed between W 400 N and Bleck Rd. Traffic will be shifted to the right with two 11-foot lanes with two-foot shoulders open in both directions. 

These lane closures and lane shifts are for phase two of a bridge replacement project just east of Johnson Rd and will be in place through late October. 

INDOT encourages drivers to allow extra time when driving through this area and follow traffic directions carefully. Motorists should slow down, exercise caution and drive distraction-free through all work zones.
