Clayton, IN – Drivers in Hendricks County should plan ahead Saturday, Dec. 6, as State Road 39 will close through downtown Clayton for the annual Christmas in Clayton event.
According to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), the closure will take place between Michigan Street and Kentucky Street from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. to accommodate holiday festivities and increased pedestrian traffic.
