Indianapolis, IN – A long-term downtown road closure begins today as part of the Union Station Rehabilitation Project. Capitol Avenue will be closed between Louisiana and South Streets while crews complete structural repairs on the Union Station overpass.
According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, the closure starts Monday, October 27, 2025, and is expected to remain in place through Spring 2026. The project aims to improve safety and infrastructure near one of the city’s busiest transportation corridors.
Detour routes will be posted throughout the area, but drivers should expect delays, especially during peak travel hours. Officials encourage commuters to use alternate streets and allow extra time when traveling through downtown Indianapolis.
The Union Station project includes major structural upgrades to the overpass and surrounding roadway, part of a larger rehabilitation plan announced earlier this year. Once complete, city officials say the improvements will enhance long-term safety and accessibility in the area.
Residents and downtown workers are thanked for their patience as construction continues over the next several months.
