U.S. 31 to have lane closures north of U.S. 30
MARSHALL COUNTY — Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Three Star Painting Inc. will begin a bridge deck sealing project on U.S. 31 over the Yellow River on or after Monday, April 18.
There will be alternating lane closures on northbound and southbound U.S. 31 between U.S. 30 and Plymouth Goshen Trail while work is occurring, with one lane open in each direction at all times. This preventative maintenance bridge project will be ongoing through late May.
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.
