LAFAYETTE It might have snowed last week, but the serious road construction season is right around the corner. Heres what to watch for in the coming weeks.
The $16 million Teal Road (U.S.52) reconstruction project has been awarded by the Indiana Department of Transportation. Lane restrictions will be imposed on Teal Road between Jan. 16 and March 31 while Duke Energy upgrades and relocates power lines. Locations will change daily, and delays are likely. Signage and flaggers will assist motorists. INDOT will be doing patching to maintain the road until all the utility companies complete their relocation work. Major road construction cannot begin until utility relocation is complete, at least one year from now. Additional project information will be provided as it becomes available.
The eastbound lanes of Schuyler Avenue are closed between Sagamore Parkway and County Road 200 North for a sewer and water extension project. Both eastbound and westbound traffic is routed into the westbound lanes. This project will take until August 16, 2020 to complete.
Main Street at Columbian Park is open, however sidewalks on the east side of Main and the north side of Wallace adjacent to Loeb Stadium will be closed through the end of the stadium construction project in the fall of 2020. Main Street may be closed for short durations like it was in late February. Side streets are more likely to be closed for longer periods of time.
There will be temporary lane closures on Elston Road between Old US 231 and Old Romney Road between Jan. 31 and April 27 while a new gas line is installed. Flaggers will assist motorists.
The sidewalk and periodically one lane will be closed at 1007 Main St. until Aug. 31, 2020, for construction of a new restaurant. Flaggers will assist traffic when Main Street is restricted to one lane.
Watch for ongoing construction at the intersection of South and Ninth streets. The work is part of the Ninth Street Sewer Separation and Pump Station project.
Hartford Street between 14th and 15th streets and northbound 16th Street between Hartford and Tippecanoe streets are still closed for the demolition of the west and north wings of the St. Elizabeth Hospital and the Nursing School. Sidewalk closure and detour signs are posted.
The sidewalk and one lane on South Street are closed indefinitely between Main Street and 18th Street.
Sidewalks are closed on South Street between Fifth Street and the alley on the west side of city hall and on the east side of Fifth Street between South and Columbia streets until April 20, 2020, for the construction of the Star City Crossing project.
Newman Road closes on Monday, March 2, from the Newman Road/Indiana 26 intersection to Benson Drive. The project will replace the existing Kankakee, Beaverville and Southern Railroad underpass with a modern structure. This structure will allow for the large commercial traffic expected from development of the Purdue Aerospace Park. Newman Road will provide facilities for pedestrians and bicycles. Construction is expected to be complete on Nov. 1. Detour routes will be phased. Phase 1: From March 2 to June 1, the detour route will be from Indiana 26 to Sharon Chapel Road. Phase 2: From June 1 through July 15, the detour route will be from U.S. 231, Lindberg Road, Klondike Road, Indiana 26 and Sharon Chapel Road. Phase 3: From July 16 through fall 2020, the detour route will be from Indiana 26 to Sharon Chapel Road.
The intersection of Klondike and Cumberland closed on Feb. 7 for construction of the roundabout at that location. The schools can only be accessed from the north off U.S. 52. Access to properties on County Road 250 North and businesses such as American Suburban Utilities and the sports complex are from County Road 400 West then east on County Road 250 North. The best estimate is that the roundabout will be completed in July. The entire project all phases still has a November 2020 completion deadline. New detour information will be available on the project website at ReviveKlondike.com.
County Road 450 North will be closed between County Road 625 East and Indiana 25 from March 2 to May 1 for a culvert replacement.
Bids were accepted but not yet awarded for two county road projects, both of which will smooth out curves. The first project is on County Road 600 North just west of County Farm Road near Battle Ground Middle School. The second project is at the 90-degree turn on County Road 200 North south of Schuyler Avenue and just before the road crosses Interstate 65. More information will be provided when construction is ready to begin.
INDOT is replacing decks and widening the I-65 northbound and southbound bridges over the Wabash River north of the Schuyler Avenue/Indiana 25 exit. Lane shifts and nighttime lane closures will continue until October 2020.
INDOT is patching and rehabilitating Indiana 28 between Indiana 25 and U.S. 231. Patching is complete; paving will continue in the upcoming construction season until the end of June 2020.
Fahey is executive director of the Tippecanoe County Area Plan Commission. She rounds up and updates road construction projects in Greater Lafayette monthly for the J&C.
