(Franklin County, Ind.) - Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Morphey Construction, Inc. closed State Road 252 just west of Scipio today, June 4, to complete a box culvert replacement project in Franklin County.

The closure is located between Dickson Road and Drewersburg Road and is expected to reopen in early August, weather permitting. During the closure, motorists should use the official detour route which follows U.S. 52 to I-74 to OH 128 to S.R. 252. 

This project is part of a $1.7 million contract awarded to Morphey Construction in December 2024. INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, use extra caution, and avoid distractions when traveling in and near work zones. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
