INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Indianapolis is about a month out from a construction project that will shut down a major interstate system through downtown.
The North Split project will last for 18 months and reconfigure the north split of I-65 and I-70 downtown. Motorists who use the North Split already are seeing some of the impact as crews prep for the $325 million project.
Mid-may is when Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) says the full closure will start; the North Split won’t reopen until late 2022. This Thursday, another traffic pattern change is scheduled on I-70 eastbound to allow crews to continue their preparation.
