Be aware of traffic tie-ups possible on two main Fishers thoroughfares in the coming days.
Lane restrictions are scheduled on 126th Street between State Road 37 and Cumberland Road March 25-29. Of course, it’s all weather-dependent. Then, the following week, a storm sewer installation is set for April 2nd-5th and will require that same part of 126th Street to close. If you live in Middleton Place, access to your neighborhood will be available from the east.
Another issue, this one for those regularly traveling on 96th Street, will impact motorists the remainder of March. The city will be cutting trees for the planned road-widening project and will require one lane to be closed periodically. Crew members with flags will be handling the one-lane traffic areas as they pop-up.
And, as always, be aware of the ongoing construction issues on State Road 37 and Allisonville Road.
Here is the road construction report for the work week beginning March 25th, as provided by the City of Fishers:
=============
126TH STREET
There will be temporary lane restrictions on 126th Street between State Road 37 and Cumberland Road from March 25 through March 29, weather permitting.
126th Street between State Road 37 and Cumberland Road will be closed from Tuesday, April 2 through Friday, April 5 for storm sewer installation across 126th Street. Middleton Place will still have access from the east.
96TH STREET
There will be periodic lane restrictions on 96th Street between Lantern Road and Cumberland Road throughout the month of March. These restrictions will be short term in order to drop trees for the road widening project. Flaggers will be in place to help direct traffic.

ALLISONVILLE ROAD
Southbound and northbound traffic on Allisonville Road has moved onto the newly constructed pavement as part of Phase 3 of the project.This will be the traffic configuration moving into the spring of 2019. The posted speed limit will remain 30 mph.
For more information on this project, view the Fact Sheet.
STATE ROAD 37
Drainage work for SR37 is in progress. Construction vehicles will be using the construction entrance on Lantern Road, between 126th Street and 131st Street, and may cause some short delays. There are no scheduled lane restrictions or closures along SR37 at this time.
