Fishers city officials have been saying for some months that the final piece of the State Road 37 project at 141st Street would be bid in August of this year with construction in 2024.  Now, city engineering officials say the bids will be taken in the spring of 2024, but the construction is expected to begin in 2024, as originally planned.

141st Street at State Road 37 is currently an east-west right-in right-out intersection.  It had originally been planned as a roundabout, much like the SR 37 interchanges at 126th & 131st Streets.  The original bids on the 141st Street roundabout were so high due to post-COVD expense increases the city chose not to award a bid at that time.

City Spokesperson Ashley Elrod says city officials had input from the state highway department that too many road construction projects are up for bid in August of this year, and the bidding should be better for the city in the spring of 2024.

So, if that timeline remains, Fishers will be awarding a bid in the spring of 2024 for construction to begin on a roundabout at 141st Street and State Road 37 the same year.
