The road project has been causing lengthy traffic backups on U.S. 50 in Aurora and Lawrenceburg.

(Aurora, Ind.) - The Indiana Department of Transportation will enact immediate single lane closures on U.S. 50 during daylight hours in both east and westbound directions to continue widespread pavement patching and signal refurbishment between Walmart Drive and Doughty Road through the end of April, weather permitting.
