Jasper County, IN – Drivers in northwest Indiana should prepare for detours beginning Monday, September 22, as State Road 10 will be closed between County Road 900 W and State Road 110 for approximately three weeks.
According to the Keener Township Volunteer Fire Department, the closure is necessary to replace a small structure at Stover Ditch. Work is expected to continue into mid-October, depending on weather conditions and construction progress.
An official detour has been established: motorists are advised to use Interstate 65, State Road 2, and U.S. 231 to reconnect with State Road 10. Local traffic should plan ahead and allow for additional travel time during the closure.
Authorities encourage drivers to use caution in the area and follow posted detour signs. The fire department noted that these repairs are part of ongoing efforts to improve infrastructure and ensure safe travel for residents and visitors.
This closure affects travel near Demotte, Roselawn, and other parts of Jasper County, with potential impacts on both local commuters and those traveling regionally across northwest Indiana.
Residents are urged to stay alert for updates on reopening timelines as crews work to complete the project.
