Local road closures coming as part of North Split reconstruction

MARION COUNTY, Ind. – In addition to the 18-month full closure of the North Split interchange that begins this weekend, there will be shorter-term closures on city streets for bridge demolition as part of the larger project.

On or after Monday, May 17, Vermont Street between Davidson and Pine streets will be closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic while the bridges over Vermont Street are demolished. The bridge demolition work is estimated to be completed on or after June 7. During this local closure, eastbound traffic on Vermont Street will be detoured to New York Street, and westbound traffic will be detoured to Michigan Street. Pedestrian traffic will be detoured to Davidson, Michigan and Pine streets.

Also, beginning on or after Friday, May 21, Central Avenue between 11^th and 12^th Streets will be closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic while the bridge over Central Avenue is demolished. The demolition work is estimated to be completed on or after June 3. During this local closure, northbound traffic will be detoured to College Avenue, and southbound traffic will be detoured to Alabama Street. Pedestrian traffic will be detoured to 12^th, Alabama and 11^th streets.

The closure of Central Avenue will impact IndyGo bus routes 2, 4, 5 and 19. During the closure, inbound routes traveling to the Carson Transit Center will detour onto 16^th Street, to southbound College Avenue, to westbound 10^th Street, to Fort Wayne Avenue. Route 19 from the Carson Transit Center traveling outbound will detour from Fort Wayne Avenue to eastbound 10^th Street, to northbound College Avenue, to westbound 16^th Street back to Central Avenue.
