Cedar Lake, IN – Drivers in Cedar Lake should prepare for a major detour beginning Monday, October 27, as 159th Street and Cline Avenue close for sanitary sewer installation work. The closure is expected to last through November 28, according to Gatlin Plumbing & Heating, Inc., which is completing the project for the Town of Cedar Lake.
According to the company’s notice, crews will install a new sanitary sewer line extending about 300 feet west from the northeast corner of Cline Avenue and 159th Street. The project will require a full road closure at the intersection, though residents will retain access to their properties.
A posted detour route will direct traffic north along 155th Avenue, south via 173rd Avenue, and along Parrish Avenue to the west and Morse Street to the east. Motorists are encouraged to plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time during construction.
Town officials shared the closure on social media Wednesday, reminding residents to “review detour information and plan your route accordingly.”
Questions regarding the project can be directed to Gatlin Plumbing & Heating at 219-228-0776 or via email at gatlinplumbing@comcast.net.
