(Aurora, Ind.) - The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is scheduled to reduce the speed limit on U.S. 50 on or after Thursday, February 26, in Aurora.

The speed limit will be reduced from 45 mph to 35 mph just west of State Road 350/State Road 56. The current 45 mph speed limit on U.S. 50 between just west of Locust Street and Stewart Street will permanently remain in place.
