INDOT has announced the closure of State Road 218 for a bridge replacement near Poneto and State Road 116 in Bluffton for bridge deck overlay.
Starting on or after Aug. 5, crews will be working between Cherry Street and 250E, as well as between Stogdill Road and 400E. Construction is expected to last until the end of October. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
During the closure, drivers should use the approved detour of State Road 3, State Road 124 and State Road 1 for the closure on 218, or seek an alternate route. For construction on SR 116, drivers should use State Road 1, State Road 124 and State Road 301.
INDOT encourages drivers to consider safety for all by slowing down, using extra caution and driving distraction-free when travelling in and around all work zones.
