Spencer County, IN – Drivers traveling near St. Meinrad should prepare for lane closures along State Road 62 beginning Monday, November 10, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).
Crews will close one lane of SR 62 about two miles east of State Road 162 to prepare for a slide correction project planned for completion in 2026. The work is expected to take roughly a week, depending on weather conditions.
According to INDOT, closures will occur daily, with lanes reopening after work concludes each evening. A flagger will be present to direct traffic through the construction zone and maintain flow along the route.
Officials urge motorists to slow down, avoid distractions, and use caution when traveling through the area, as crews will be working close to active lanes. Drivers should expect short delays and plan alternate routes if possible.
The upcoming project aims to stabilize the roadway and prevent future erosion issues along the busy stretch connecting St. Meinrad and eastern Spencer County.
