PCH entrance to undergo renovation beginning Monday

The Putnam County Hospital main entrance off U.S. 231 will be temporarily limited to one lane during the morning hours of Monday, Aug. 24.

The temporary closing of the north entrance lane will allow the entrance to be prepped for a larger renovation which will take place at a later date.

PCH officials urge all drivers to use caution when approaching the hospital entrance during this time.

Starting the week of Sept. 7, Putnam County Hospital will begin an intensive renovation to its main entrance off U.S. 231 with the entrance once again down to one lane.

While one lane will still be accessible, the hospital urges all staff, vendors, patients and visitors who are coming to the hospital or the facilities located along Hospital Lane, to bypass the main entrance, and turn at County Road 300 South (Jones Road), located just south of the main hospital entrance.

The entrance renovation is expected to reduce access to one lane for two to three weeks.
