(Franklin County, Ind.) — The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has announced a $2.2 million project that includes closing part of State Road 46 next week.
Contractor Dave O’Mara Contractor Inc. will begin structure replacement on the bridge over Little Laughery Creek, just west of Batesville High School, on or after Monday, June 1.
The official detour route will be I-74 from Batesville (Exit 149) to New Point (Exit 143).
This closure will last approximately 60 days, weather permitting.
