I-69: Improvements are currently underway to rehabilitate existing bridges, pavement and drainage structures along the 15-mile stretch of interstate.

The speed limit is reduced to 60 mph and further reduced to 50 mph when workers are present. I-69 is expected to open to three lanes in each direction between State Road 37 and State Road 38 before the end of this year.

Geotechnical drilling began along the State Road 37 corridor in May as part of the final design phase of State Road 37 Improvement Project. Lane and shoulder restrictions will be active through September. The geotechnical drilling will cause lane restrictions on State Road 37 at the 126th Street intersection on or after August 7 and are anticipated to last until September 30. Southbound restrictions begin after 9 a.m. daily and northbound restrictions will be completed daily before 4 p.m. to allow for maximum traffic flow during peak rush hours. Crews will maintain a minimum of one through-lane at all times.

The State Road 37 improvement project is a $124 million joint project between Fishers, Hamilton County, Noblesville and INDOT. Questions or concerns may be directed to drivefishers@fishers.in.us.
