The Indiana Department of Transportation expects the interchanges to be closed from seven to 15 days.
Motorists traveling north on Keystone will not have ramp access to eastbound I-465, and those traveling east on I-465 will be unable to exit onto northbound Keystone, INDOT said. Eastbound I-465 traffic, however, will continue to have ramp access to southbound Keystone.
The ramp closures will enable contractor Rieth-Riley Construction Co. Inc. of Goshen to finish construction of southbound lanes on the west side of Keystone.
The $18.2 million Major Moves project is reconstructing the Keystone/I-465 interchange as a partial cloverleaf to reduce traffic congestion. The project includes more travel lanes—one in each direction on Keystone—plus added turn lanes extending from 96th to 98th streets.
