Lebanon, IN – Commuters in Boone County are facing delays today after the southbound lane of Indianapolis Avenue was shut down near Hendricks Drive due to a disabled vehicle, according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office.
According to deputies, the closure began early Wednesday afternoon as law enforcement and roadway crews responded to the disabled vehicle blocking the southbound lane. Officials are asking drivers to avoid the area and use caution if traveling nearby as crews work to remove the vehicle and restore traffic flow.
The impacted stretch of Indianapolis Avenue is a well-traveled connector for Lebanon residents and those commuting toward central Boone County. The lane restriction may cause backups during peak travel times, particularly for southbound drivers heading toward commercial areas and residential neighborhoods near Hendricks Drive.
As of the latest update, authorities have not announced an estimated reopening time. No injuries have been reported, and the incident appears to involve only the disabled vehicle. Drivers in the area should plan for detours or allow extra travel time while the closure remains in effect.
Traffic updates and reopening information will be provided by the Boone County Sheriff’s Office as they become available. Residents who witnessed the incident or experienced delays are encouraged to share what they saw.
