I-69/I-465 Interchange:
The new interchange at I-69 and I-465 opened in early August, including ramps at Epler Ave. While this is an important milestone in Connecting the Crossroads, the area near I-465 will remain an active construction zone through late 2024 as work continues to move I-465 into its permanent alignment. Drivers should buckle up, put their phones down, reduce speed, and travel carefully through the construction zone.
What to expect this week:
- Westbound and eastbound I-465 near the White River Bridge will be reduced to one lane with 20-minute stops nightly from Monday, August 26, through Friday, August 30, between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. for material deliveries and overhead sign structure placement. This single-lane condition is expected to cause delays. Use an alternate route if possible.
- Westbound and eastbound I-465 between US 31/East Street and I-65 will be reduced to one lane with 20-minute stops nightly from Monday, August 26, through Friday, August 30, between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. to provide safe access for crews to and from the construction site.
- I-69 northbound and southbound between Fairview Road and I-465 are still within the I-69 Finish Line construction zone. Drivers should follow posted speed limits, be alert, and drive safely as construction continues through later this year.
Reminders:
- Entrance and exit ramps on the east side of Harding Street at I-465 are now closed. These closures are expected through mid-October for ramp reconstruction. For more information on the ramp closures and detour for local traffic, click here.
- The westbound I-465 exit ramp to Mann Road (Exit 7) will remain closed until early October for pavement reconstruction. Motorists needing to access Mann Road from westbound I-465 should exit at Kentucky Avenue/SR 67 (Exit 8). A map of the ramp closure is available here.
- The southbound US 31/East Street entrance ramp to westbound I-465 will remain closed into late 2024.
