Indianapolis, IN – Drivers along U.S. 36 (Rockville Road) should prepare for new lane closures beginning on or after Tuesday, Oct. 21, as part of the ongoing Modern Rockville improvement project.
According to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), crews will be conducting additional utility relocations between Transfer Drive and Girls School Road, expanding the current work zone in Marion County. The closures are expected to cause traffic delays in both directions.
INDOT officials said the project aims to modernize utilities and improve long-term traffic flow along one of the city’s busiest corridors. Work in this section is projected to continue through mid-January, weather permitting. Motorists are urged to allow extra travel time and watch for construction crews and changing traffic patterns.
The Modern Rockville project, which began earlier this year, includes several phases of infrastructure upgrades, road resurfacing, and drainage improvements.
