Indiana Department of Transportation crews will be seal coating portions of State Road 10 which will result in road closures over the next several weeks.
State Road 10 between State Road 39 and U.S. 35 will be closed for approximately five days on or after Monday, August 1. State Road 10 between U.S. 35 and State Road 23 will be closed for approximately five days on or after Monday, August 8.
This work is weather dependent and the schedule is subject to change.
During these operations, the existing pavement is coated with liquid asphalt, which seals cracks and provides waterproof protection. Aggregate is applied over the seal coat. Once the seal coat has cured, crews will sweep the highway clear of loose stone, apply a fog seal surface coat and paint pavement markings.
This treatment is designed to extend the life of the pavement below by three to five years and lower maintenance costs.
If driving through a seal coating work zone, drivers should take extra caution, drive slowly and allow additional space between vehicles to prevent stone chips from damaging windshields or paint.
