The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces traffic will shift into the newly resurfaced U.S. 52 eastbound lanes tomorrow Friday, August 31 by noon, weather permitting. This will allow the contractor to begin resurfacing the westbound lanes.
Rieth-Riley Construction was awarded this contract for $10.5 million. This project includes patching and resurfacing U.S. 52 from South 30th St. in Lafayette to East C.R. 900 South, approximately seven miles southeast of Lafayette.
The northern section of U.S. 52 in Lafayette will be resurfaced with asphalt.
The southern portion of this project spanning from just north of C.R. 500 E. to C.R. 900 S. will be concrete work. During this phase, traffic will be shifted into one 11′ lane in each direction.
This work is scheduled for completion this fall.
INDOT reminds motorists to follow the posted work zone speed limit, use caution and consider worker safety when traveling through a construction zone.
