Terre Haute, IN – Drivers traveling between Terre Haute and Indianapolis should plan for slower commutes starting Monday, January 5, as the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) begins patching work along Interstate 70.
According to INDOT, full-depth patching will take place in short stretches between State Road 641/46 near Terre Haute and Quaker Boulevard outside Indianapolis. The work will impact sections across Vigo, Clay, and Putnam Counties, with intermittent lane closures expected throughout the week.
Crews expect the project to last a couple of weeks, depending on weather conditions. Drivers are urged to allow extra travel time, reduce speed in work zones, and watch for lane shifts.
Traffic delays may be most noticeable during daytime hours. INDOT recommends checking 511in.org or using the INDOT Trafficwise app for real-time lane closure updates and alternate routes.
The project is part of INDOT’s broader effort to improve pavement safety and extend the life of major highways across Indiana.
