Milestone Contractors are in the process of shifting Interstate 69 traffic lanes between Campus Parkway (Exit 210) and Ind. 38 (Exit 219) in Noblesville.
Two lanes in both directions will be shifted toward the right shoulder to accommodate construction of a third lane in the median.
Signs will direct large trucks to use the left lane while traffic is shifted toward the right shoulder through the work zone. Internstate 69 lanes between Exit 205 and Exit 210 are currently in this configuration.
Modifying lane markings for the traffic shift will require various alternating lane closures between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.The following schedule is subject to change:
- Wednesday, Sept. 21: Southbound I-69 lane closures between Exit 214 and Exit 210
- Thursday, Sept. 22: Northbound I-69 lane closures between Exit 214 and State Road 38 (Exit 219)
- Friday, Sept. 23: Southbound I-69 lane closures between Exit 219 and Exit 214
After lanes are shifted, subsequent overnight lane closures will be needed to place temporary concrete barrier and install entrance and exit routes for construction trucks.
Motorists should watch for construction trucks entering and exiting the roadway, keep a safe following distance and be alert for slowing traffic ahead.
The speed limit is reduced to 60 mph and further reduced to 50 mph when workers are present. Speed detection and LED display signs are installed in the work zone to alert motorists driving at unsafe speeds. Indiana State Police are patrolling the work zone to promote public safety and compliance with traffic laws.
