Bridge work begins next week on U.S. 30

PLYMOUTH – Indiana Department of Transportation contractor LaPorte Construction Company will conduct bridge work on

U.S. 30 between Oak Road and Plymouth-Goshen Road beginning on or after Tuesday, May 26.
During construction, U.S. 30 will be reduced to one lane in each direction. Phase one will have westbound U.S. 30 closed for construction, and the eastbound lanes will be converted to two-way traffic. The ramp from State Road 17 to U.S. 30 westbound will be closed, and the detour will follow U.S. 30 eastbound to the U.S. 31 interchange to turn around.
Phase one will be ongoing through late August. Phase two is expected to begin in mid-September for the eastbound lanes, with construction activities continuing through late November. Bridge deck overlays will be conducted at Western Ave and Baker Ditch.
As part of this project, Western Ave is closed between Skylane Dr and Pilgrim Ln under U.S. 30 for bridge beam repairs through mid-June.
INDOT encourages drivers to allow extra time when traveling through this area and follow traffic directions carefully. Motorists should slow down, exercise caution, and drive distraction-free through all work zones.
