It has been a big week on the Fishers road construction scene.  Thursday evening, all four lanes in the construction zone on Allisonville Road between 116th Street and 131st are now open.  Mayor Fadness recently said that project should have taken 12 months, but has spanned nearly two years.  But the good news is all lanes are open, although motorists should be on the lookout for some construction work finishing-up the project.

The past week also saw the ground breaking ceremony for the upgrade on State Road 37.  The project will begin at the 126th Street intersection.  Fishers City Director of Engineering Jason Taylor told LarryInFishers that 126th Street should remain open for east-west traffic for the remainder of this year.  The contractor will announce when traffic will be blocked or restricted east-west sometime in 2020.  SR 37 north-south lanes will have all four lanes open during the construction, according to officials.

There are other projects to know in the coming work week, starting Monday, Spetember 16th.  The full listing, as provided by the City of Fishers, is shown below:
