Schererville, IN – Drivers in Schererville should prepare for a full-day road closure this Saturday as crews perform utility work along Kennedy Avenue.
According to the Town of Schererville Public Works Department, Kennedy Avenue from Main Street to Division Street (Avenue H) will be closed Saturday, October 25, from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for NIPSCO aerial electric line work.
