BROWN, JOHNSON, MORGAN & MONROE COUNTIES—Indiana Department of Transportation’s contractor for installing six deck overlays on bridges in Brown, Johnson, Morgan and Monroe Counties plans to begin work early next week (AUGUST 13-17) at the State Road 45/Old S.R. 37 overpass spanning Cascade Road, located one mile east of S.R. 37 at Bloomington.

Motorists will be restricted to a single lane controlled by traffic signals at either end of the work zone.

INDOT officials advise drivers to anticipate delays. S.R. 45’s traffic count in 32,700 vehicles per day.

Weddle Brothers of Evansville, the state’s contractor for this $548,548 bridge rehabilitation project, will proceed to the S.R. 135 bridge at Gnaw Bone Creek near Nashville once operations at Bloomington have been completed. Flaggers will direct traffic around the S.R. 135 worksite.

Meanwhile, Weddle crews are completing deck overlays at the twin S.R. 37 bridges over Bluff Creek near Waverly.

Traffic has been normalized at the S.R. 39 White River bridge near Martinsville and the S.R. 67 Lambs Creek bridge near Centerton. Remaining work will be done with occasional flagging.
