Through Oct. 17, Noblesville will continue work on Pleasant Street in its third step of the first phase of the extension of Presley Boulevard, the road that travels behind Home Depot at Ind. 32, west of Ind. 37.
The complete closure of a portion of the street is just east of the roundabout between Best Buy and Kahlo Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM at Mercantile Boulevard.
The city suggests a detour using Town and Country Boulevard from Mercantile Boulevard east to Union Chapel Road.
Work began Oct. 5. The two previous steps in Phase 1 included traffic restrictions as the north half of the roundabout was being constructed. This closure will complete the construction of the south portion of the roundabout.
The city has said at a later time, Pleasant Street will have three consecutive 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daytime closures for asphalt surface and marking work. Signs and message boards are currently posted about the upcoming closures, and local traffic to all homes and businesses will be accessible.
Presley Boulevard will run parallel to Ind. 37, connecting Pleasant Street to Ind. 32 with roundabouts at each end when completed in 2016. The city says first phase is expected to cost $2,150,000.
The second phase is the roundabout at Ind. 32, which will be overseen by the Indiana Dept. of Transportation. City officials say the project will go out for bid in November, with construction beginning in late spring 2016.
