Construction signs are going up in Switzerland County.
(Switzerland County, Ind.) – Construction signs have been placed in advance of a bridge replacement project in Switzerland County.
The Indiana Department of Transportation has contracted Milestone to complete the $3.6 million project at the Tucker Run structure on State Road 56, just six miles west of State Road 129.

According to INDOT, State Road 56’s traffic count is 2,257 vehicles per day.
