Rolling slowdown scheduled on I-70 early Wednesday morning

MONROVIA — The Indiana Department of Transportation has announced a rolling slowdown scheduled on I-70 near the intersection of State Road 39 in both directions on Wednesday at 4 a.m.

The closure is anticipated to only last for 10 minutes so Milestone Contractors can move their crane across the interstate.

Milestone Contractors LP was awarded the $16.2 million contract. This project will redesign this interchange to a diverging diamond interchange (DDI).

The interchange modification project is being built to add traffic capacity and relieve congestion for the current and future needs as development expands in the area.

This interchange is scheduled to open to traffic in the fall of 2021.
