Drivers should expect delays and seek alternate routes when possible. Actual dates and anticipated work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances occur. Emergency access will be maintained during the work.
Indiana Safe Zones
The Safe Zones speed control program remains active in the Clear Path construction zone. This program uses automated systems to monitor speeds in specified work zones. The goal of the program is to keep workers, drivers, and their passengers safe by reducing excessive speeding in work zones. It’s important to slow down in construction zones and drive without distractions. Learn more about Safe Zones at SafeZonesIN.com
