Heads up, night drivers: the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) East Central has announced scheduled overnight roadway restrictions for the installation of new overhead signage that'll impact several routes this week. In a social media post on their official Facebook page, INDOT advises that specific segments of the I-70 will see lane reductions and ramp closures.

Running through the week's schedule, yesterday through today, and then again on Saturday, you're looking at roadwork from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.; the eastbound I-70 collector/distributor ramp at Shadeland Avenue will be pinched down to a single lane, and if you're aiming to get onto eastbound I-70 from Shadeland Avenue well, you're out of luck because that ramp will be shut tight. Additionally, as if dodging orange cones wasn't enough, drivers should brace for potential 20-minute complete traffic halts that could pop up sporadically between midnight and 3 a.m. on those nights

For those who need a little more detail, there's a silver lining—the full scoop can be unearthed on INDOT's post with a link to learn more: bit.ly/4qANHJF
