I-469 to have lane closures for bridge work

INDOT announces alternating lane closures on I-469 for bridge construction. 

Crews will begin working between Indianapolis Rd and State Road 1/Bluffton Rd on or after Tuesday, September 3. Bridge bearing repairs will be ongoing for approximately four weeks, with the outside lanes closed during phase one and inside lanes closed during phase two. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.

INDOT encourages drivers to consider safety for all by slowing down, using extra caution and driving distraction-free when traveling in and around all work zones.
