Southern Indiana officials shared their concerns about the Sherman Minton Bridge project during a closed meeting with the Indiana Department of Transportation's commissioner.

The ramp closures will happen during overnight hours between Sept. 30 to Oct. 11.

INDOT says the eastbound lanes of I-70 are currently closed between Mt. Comfort Rd (Exit 96) and State Road 109 at Knightstown. All lanes will remain closed until Monday, Sept. 16 at 6 a.m.

The Indiana Department of Transportation says it will shut down the I-465 lanes running westbound and southbound between I-65 and I-70 on the city's southeast side beginning Friday night.

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.

This week's meetings will give the public an overview of the Mid-States Corridor Project and explain the road's purpose.

The long-planned project is designed to improve the I-65 / I-70 interchange near downtown Indianapolis. INDOT says the interchange, which is the second-most heavily traveled in the state, has been deteriorating for years.
