Lane Closure Scheduled For U.S. 50 In Dillsboro

A new left turn lane will be constructed at Front Street.

(Dillsboro, Ind.) – A two-week lane closure has been scheduled for U.S. 50 in Dillsboro.

INDOT contractor Walsh Construction plans to close the left lane of westbound U.S. 50 between State Road 262 and Short Street on or after Monday, March 30.

During the lane closure, crews will construct a new left turn lane at Front Street.

The project is part of a multi-million-dollar concrete overlay contract that wrapped up last year in Ripley and Dearborn counties.

Motorists are asked to slow down and use extra caution when passing through the work zone.
