As we enter the fall season, look for some projects around the City of Fishers to be completed, others to continue. This update from the city says 126th Street at State Road 37 should be open to east-west traffic sometime next week.
“Many of these projects have been in the works for years, so I’m incredibly excited to see the culmination of our work,” said City of Fishers’ Director of Engineering, Jason Taylor, in a city news release. “These improvements will enhance both the motorist and pedestrian experience around our community, in a time where it’s more important than ever that we help our residents get to where they’re going quickly and efficiently, and give them new opportunities to explore our community by foot.”
Here is a listing of the projects, as provided by the City of Fishers:
