Boone County, IN – Drivers in Boone County are being asked to avoid the intersection of 96th Street and Ford Road after a crash forced authorities to shut down the area Thursday morning.
According to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to the intersection after reports of a collision that blocked traffic in both directions. The office issued a traffic alert urging motorists to use caution and take alternate routes while emergency crews work at the scene.
Officials did not immediately release details on injuries or the number of vehicles involved. The intersection is expected to remain closed for several hours as cleanup and investigation efforts continue.
Motorists traveling through the area are encouraged to plan extra travel time and seek alternate routes through nearby Zionsville or Whitestown. Updates on the reopening of the roadway are expected to come from the Boone County Sheriff’s Office later today.
