Crews installing new gas line for Citizen Energy

INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 3, 2022) – Crews installing a new gas line for Citizens Energy Group plan to close the center lanes of Southport Road near State Road 37. The lane closures are expected to last about two weeks starting after 7 p.m. tonight, Aug. 3.

County Line interchange to open

The future I-69 interchange at County Line Road opened partially overnight.

County Line Road has reopened to through traffic underneath S.R. 37 between two roundabouts. The roundabout west of S.R. 37 now provides full access to the southbound entrance and exit ramps and the Bluffdale Drive frontage road.

A temporary exit ramp also opened, providing access from northbound S.R. 37 to County Line Road. This temporary ramp and Bluff Road connect with the new County Line Road roundabout east of S.R. 37.

The northbound S.R. 37 exit ramp begins just past the bridge over County Line Road and the ramp has an advisory speed limit of 25 mph. Drivers should stay alert and exercise caution as other vehicles adjust to the traffic patterns.

About I-69 Finish Line
I-69 Finish Line is the sixth and final section of the Interstate 69 connection between Evansville and Indianapolis. The project will upgrade the existing S.R. 37 to interstate standards between Martinsville and Indianapolis.

Governor Eric Holcomb’s Next Level Connections program fully funded the project and accelerated construction by three years. I-69 Finish Line is expected to open to traffic in late 2024, improving safety and reducing travel time.
