Lebanon, Indiana – Overnight lane closures on Interstate 65 in Boone County will begin Monday, March 2, shifting traffic patterns for ongoing construction work.
According to INDOT West Central, crews will implement overnight lane restrictions on or after Monday evening so contractors can continue work on the State Road 52 and I-65 intersection improvement project.
The closures will affect portions of I-65 in Boone County, including areas near Lebanon and State Road 52. Officials said the temporary lane shifts are necessary to safely move traffic while construction advances into its next phase.
Work in this stage of the project is expected to continue through the end of March, weather permitting. INDOT did not specify exact nightly closure times but indicated impacts will occur overnight.
Drivers should expect changing traffic patterns, narrowed lanes, and potential slowdowns while traveling through the construction zone. Motorists are urged to reduce speed, remain alert for signage, and allow additional travel time.
The State Road 52 at I-65 project is designed to improve traffic flow and safety at the interchange, which serves as a key connector for commuters and commercial vehicles in central Indiana.
The overnight restrictions may affect students returning from evening activities and workers commuting during late shifts, particularly those traveling between Lebanon and surrounding communities.
INDOT encourages drivers to monitor official channels for updates and check traffic conditions before heading out.
