Vermillion County, IN – Drivers near Dana and Quaker should prepare for detours as Base Line Road, which runs west to the Illinois state line, will be closed later today for culvert repair work.
According to the Vermillion County Sheriff’s Office, County Highway crews will begin the closure this afternoon. The project is expected to last two to three days, weather permitting.
The closure affects the section of Base Line Road just north of County Road 100 North and west of State Road 71. Local access may be restricted during the work period.
Motorists traveling between Indiana and Illinois in this area should plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time. Detour signs will be posted, and officials urge drivers to use caution when traveling near construction zones.
Road crews expect to reopen the roadway once repairs are complete and conditions are deemed safe.
