Closure planned on State Road 11 in Harrison County

HARRISON COUNTY, Ind. — Indiana Department of Transportation contractor C&R Construction is scheduled to close State Road 11 over Buck Creek on or after Tuesday, April 9, to complete a bridge replacement project near Elizabeth.

The closure will take place just west of the State Road 211 intersection and is expected to take up to 18 weeks, weather permitting. Crews will begin to place signage in the area prior to the start of construction. During the closure, motorists should use the official detour route which follows S.R. 337 to I-64.

This project is part of a $2.4 million contract awarded to C&R Construction in January 2023. The contract includes a total of seven district bridge projects. INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, use extra caution and avoid distractions when traveling near work zones. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
