Boone County, IN – All lanes of Interstate 65 southbound near the 139-mile marker have reopened after an earlier closure, according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office.
The department shared the update Friday morning, confirming that traffic is once again moving normally through the affected stretch. The closure had previously impacted travel in the area south of Lebanon, prompting delays for morning commuters.
According to officials, crews cleared the scene and reopened the roadway shortly after 9 a.m. The sheriff’s office did not specify the cause of the earlier disruption, though law enforcement typically responds to crashes or debris reports along that section of I-65.
Drivers are encouraged to use caution as normal traffic resumes, particularly during the ongoing winter travel period when road conditions can shift quickly.
The Boone County Sheriff’s Office continues to provide traffic updates on its official Facebook page for drivers traveling through the central Indiana corridor.
