Heads up, drivers: prepare for a traffic shake-up on I-65 southbound. Beginning at the crayon-thin hour of 2 a.m. tomorrow, you'll be funneled down to just one lane from the North Split to Fletcher Avenue, courtesy of urgently needed repairs on a railroad bridge. According to an alert from the Indiana Department of Transportation, posted on their Facebook page, the constriction begins tomorrow and is set to stretch through the weekend until next Wednesday.
A truck, sporting a dumpster as its unwieldy crown, took a swing at a CSX railroad bridge just last week. The impact was more than a brief encounter; it left the bridge with injuries that demanded more than a superficial bandage. The Washington Street ramp to I-65 southbound will fall under the closure's spell as well. Travelers seeking salvation from traffic purgatory or more information on the impending repair operations can find solace by clicking through to INDOT's website link provided in their social media post, where details unfold.
