Public Information Meeting Set for Proposed Intersection Improvement

Indiana Department of Transportation officials will hold a public information meeting on the proposed J-turn intersection on U.S. 31 at State Road 10 and State Road 110 in Marshall County.

According to INDOT, J-turn intersections enhance safety by preventing direct crossing and left turn movements. These types of intersections are generally limited to locations where the main road has four or more through lanes divided by a median. They are meant to improve the ability of traffic to cross a multilane divided highway from a crossroad, and reduce the number of traffic signal phases.

The information meeting will be Tuesday, June 20 with an open house at 6 p.m. followed by a formal presentation at 6:30 p.m. INDOT representatives will be present to address questions about the proposed J-turn intersection.

The event will be in the meeting room at the Argos Public Library at 142 N. Michigan Street.
