Lebanon, IN – Southbound lanes of I-65 near Lebanon were temporarily closed Friday evening after a crash between State Road 32 and State Road 39, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) West Central District.

INDOT issued the alert around 8:45 p.m., noting the closure near the 139-mile marker as snow created slick and hazardous driving conditions. Officials urged drivers to avoid the area, reduce speeds, and use extra caution amid the winter weather.

As of the latest update, INDOT confirmed that all lanes have since reopened, though traffic remained slow through the area as crews continued to treat the roadway for snow and ice.

The crash occurred during a period of reduced visibility and accumulating snow across central Indiana, prompting several minor traffic slowdowns in Boone County and surrounding areas. No injuries or additional details about the vehicles involved were immediately available.

Motorists traveling between Lebanon and Whitestown are advised to monitor INDOT’s TrafficWise map or social media channels for the latest updates before heading out.
