State Road 37 construction will begin to impact 126th St. February 24th

We have seen some work and a few lane restrictions along State Road 37 in Fishers the past year, but the first big closure is scheduled to start February 24th.  If traveling northbound on State Road 37, the left-turn lane onto westbound 126th Street will be closed to traffic.

Then, on March 1st, more closures are in store.  For the full listing of the latest road construction around Fishers, here is the report released by the City of Fishers February 14th:

========

 

STATE ROAD 37 
On Monday, February 24, the left turn lane onto westbound 126th Street from northbound SR 37 will close. This is the first step of construction as the temporary barrier wall will be installed. During the left turn lane closure, there will be cross access.

Beginning on Sunday, March 1, the west approach of east 126th Street at SR 37 will close and is anticipated to reopen in July. During this time, cross access and all left turns will be restricted, with only right in and right out until this phase ends. Local access to businesses will remain open via Lantern Road. The official detour route will direct drivers to use 116th Street or 131st Street to Allisonville Road. Detour route markers and advance warning signs will be in place prior to the closure.
