Westbound exit ramp at I-70/SR 243 to be closed Wednesday for resurfacing

CLOVERDALE -- The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has announced that the resurfacing project on Interstate 70 will close the westbound exit ramp at State Road 243 on Wednesday, May 22.

The closure will begin at approximately 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. that same day to mill and resurface the ramp.

This project on I-70 will resurface the interstate from three miles west of SR 243 to just over a half-mile west of U.S. 231.

The project was awarded to Rieth-Riley Construction for $7.2 million.

It is scheduled for completion by the end of July. The work schedule is subject to change in the event of inclement weather.

INDOT reminds drivers to use caution and consider worker safety when driving through a construction zone.
