Cedar Lake, IN – Commuters in southern Lake County should prepare for detours as construction crews plan to close a key Cedar Lake intersection for a full month.
According to the Town of Cedar Lake, both 159th Street and Cline Avenue will be closed to traffic beginning Sunday, October 27, through Thursday, November 28, for ongoing construction improvements. Officials urged drivers to review detour maps and allow extra travel time during the closure period.
The project will temporarily block one of Cedar Lake’s main north-south and east-west routes, affecting local access between U.S. 41 and Parrish Avenue. Residents traveling toward downtown Cedar Lake or nearby Schererville are encouraged to seek alternate routes in advance.
Officials have not specified the exact construction scope but noted updates will be posted on the Town of Cedar Lake’s official Facebook page and website throughout the project.
Motorists are encouraged to use caution near work zones and follow posted detour signage.
