Montgomery County, IN – Drivers using Interstate 74 should plan for brief slowdowns on Thursday as contractors perform paint line marking along the highway, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).
According to INDOT, crews will be working between State Road 25 and State Road 32 in Montgomery County as part of an ongoing patching and maintenance project. The operation will take place in both directions as workers apply new lane markings along the stretch of I-74.
Officials said the work will occur in a moving operation, meaning crews will shift gradually along the interstate, and drivers may experience intermittent slowdowns or temporary lane restrictions. Motorists are urged to use extra caution when traveling through the area and to avoid distractions while near work vehicles or equipment.
No full closures are planned, but INDOT reminds drivers that fines are doubled for speeding in active work zones. The agency also encourages travelers to check 511in.org or the INDOT TrafficWise app for live updates on lane conditions and travel times.
