U.S. 40 traffic pattern changes coming to Clay County
BRAZIL -- Traffic pattern changes to U.S. 40 between Knightsville and Harmony in Clay County will take place next week, the Indiana Department of Transportation has announced.
The existing four-lane section of U.S. 40 between Belle St. and County Road 200 East will become one lane in each direction with a two-way left-turn lane. The work is designed to improve the safety along the 1.7-mile section of roadway by allowing motorists to move out of the through lane when preparing to make their left turns.
Wabash Valley Asphalt Inc. was awarded the $5 million contract that patched and resurfaced U.S. 231 through Greencastle and U.S. 40 from the east city limits of Brazil through Knightsville and Harmony.
