The Indiana Department of Transportation has announced a culvert pipe replacement on State Road 356 near Petersburg.
Beginning on or around this Thursday, October 21st, INDOT maintenance crews will close S.R. 356 near East Jasper Road to replace a drainage culvert crossing all lanes of traffic.
Work is expected to last for about a day depending on weather conditions.
The operation will begin after morning peak traffic times and the road is expected to re-open before the afternoon peak traffic times.
During this project, the road will be completely closed to through traffic.
Local traffic will have access up to the point of closure, but through traffic should use the official detour following S.R. 257, U.S. 50, and S.R. 57.
INDOT urges drivers to slow down and stay alert near crews.
