I-65 lane restrictions begin Sunday in Bartholomew and Jackson counties

The Indiana Department of Transportation will close segments of southbound Interstate 65’s right lane in Bartholomew and Jackson counties for concrete patching. The closures will take place between Seymour and the Walesboro exit, just south of Columbus. INDOT says that closures are scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. Sunday at mile marker 65.

INDOT has released the following schedule for closures:

• 8 p.m. Sunday-noon Monday SB I-65 right lane closure from mile marker 65.0
• 6 p.m. Monday-noon Tuesday SB I-65 right lane closure from mile marker 61.0
• 6 p.m. Tuesday-noon Wednesday SB I-65 right lane closure from mile marker 57.0
• 6 p.m. Wednesday-noon Thursday SB I-65 right lane closure from mile marker 53.0

INDOT says that this work, and the schedule, is dependent on the weather. Drivers should expect delays during peak travel periods.

This $1.2 million project is slated to be finished by the end of November.
