Jasper County, IN – Drivers in northwest Indiana can expect smoother travel this week after a two-week closure on State Road 10 wrapped up. The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced completion of a “small” structure replacement between County Road 900 West and State Road 110.
According to INDOT Northwest, the project involved replacing a box culvert at Stover Ditch, a critical drainage structure that helps prevent roadway flooding. The road was closed for approximately 15 days to allow crews to complete the replacement safely and efficiently.
The project is part of INDOT’s broader effort to upgrade infrastructure across Jasper County before winter weather sets in. Officials say construction season is gradually winding down, but drivers should still expect occasional lane and road closures throughout October.
Residents and commuters are encouraged to visit 511in.org for real-time updates on current and upcoming closures statewide. The site also provides detour routes, live traffic cameras, and alerts to help drivers plan ahead.
INDOT shared photos of the completed culvert replacement on social media, highlighting steady progress in maintaining local road safety and drainage systems across northwest Indiana.
