INDOT to close Post Rd and London Rd bridges over I-74 for bridge work

INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Department of Transportation will close two bridges along I-74 on the Southeast side of Indianapolis.

Two bridge decks will be closed, the Post Road bridge and the London Road bridge over I-74.

Contractors will be constructing a new bridge deck overlay on both bridges. They will also be doing additional bridge work on the Post Road bridge.

During the bridge deck closures, all ramps will be open, but the public will not be able to cross the bridge. If you need to turn to get across a bridge once you exit the interstate, official detour routes are provided below. The public is welcome to find their own local routes around the closure as well.

All of this work is weather dependent, please follow @INDOTEast on Twitter and INDOT East Central on Facebook for updates.
