The Indiana Department of Transportation announces lane restrictions for two bridge projects in Vincennes set to begin within the next two weeks on U.S. 50 and U.S. 41.
Beginning on or around March 14, contractors will begin restricting lanes on bridges on the bridges spanning the westbound ramp from U.S. 50 west onto U.S. 41 south. This is the lower level of the tri level bridges in that area. Lanes will be restricted to one lane in each direction during the project. Inclement weather could affect the start date of this project.
Beginning on or around March 21, contractors will begin replacing the deck of the bridges on U.S. 41 that cross over Old Wheatland Road. This project will be restricted using the crossovers constructed last fall. Northbound U.S. 41/westbound U.S. 50 traffic will be routed into the southbound lanes of U.S. 41 during the first phase of the project.
Both projects are scheduled to last until early to mid July depending upon weather conditions. Restrictions will be in place around the clock during the course of construction.
