Hamilton County, IN – A section of State Road 37 between 206th Street and Strawtown Avenue has reopened after being closed earlier today due to a semi-trailer fire, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
The closure, which began this morning, halted both directions of traffic as emergency crews responded to the blaze. Officials said the incident caused temporary congestion and detours in the surrounding area. Drivers were urged to seek alternate routes during the two-hour shutdown.
Authorities confirmed the road reopened shortly after cleanup and safety inspections were completed. No injuries were reported, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Residents traveling through northern Hamilton County are advised to drive cautiously as residual slowdowns may persist in the area following the earlier disruption.
