Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) contractor Rieth Riley Construction will begin a resurfacing project in La Porte on or after Monday, April 3.
The project includes U.S. 35 and Pine Lake Avenue between NewPorte Boulevard and State Road 39.
One lane will be closed at a time through the duration of the project. There will also be intermittent intersection closures for work, with no more than two intersections and never two consecutive intersections closed at the same time.
Motorists should be prepared for changing traffic patterns and intersection access through this area. Work is expected to be ongoing through early July. Work will include patching, replacing curb and gutter, bringing ramps up to ADA compliance and adding additional drainpipes. This project will also work in coordination with construction on Phase 2 of the Chessie Trail.
INDOT encourages drivers to allow extra time when driving through this area and follow traffic directions carefully. Motorists should slow down, exercise caution and drive distraction-free through all work zones.
