Boone County, IN – Drivers in Boone County should expect short delays this week as the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) conducts flagging operations on two major routes.
According to INDOT, maintenance crews will begin spot paving work on or after Wednesday, November 5, along State Road 47 between I-65 and S.R. 39, focusing on the eastbound lane.
Then, starting Thursday, November 6, crews will shift to State Road 39, working between Essex Street and Esplanade Street and in front of Memorial Park.
All paving is expected to take place during daytime hours, though schedules may change based on weather conditions. Flagging operations will direct traffic through the work zones, and drivers should be prepared for brief stoppages and slower travel along both routes.
INDOT reminds motorists to use caution and avoid distractions when driving near crews. The agency continues to encourage safe speeds and awareness in all active construction areas.
