For those of you happy that the construction blocking traffic along the Nickel Plate Trail on 131st Street is complete and the road is open, be prepared for another project, this one blocking 126th Street, along the same trail, west of State Road 37.  That construction is not expected to end until late September.

There are many other updates of interest to local motorists in the weekly update provided by the City of Fishers, and shown below.
