Lane Restrictions Due On I-70 From Indianapolis To Ohio Line

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana highway officials say multiple lane closures on Interstate 70 in both directions from Indianapolis to the Ohio line will begin Friday.

The Indiana Department of Transportation says lane restrictions will be in 10-mile increments. The agency says at least one lane will be open in each direction of I-70 at all times during construction work that will stretch through November.

INDOT says contractors will be full depth patching lanes of I-70 in both directions. The department says crews will be working seven days a week.
