INDOT held a press event the past week, saying the Clear Path Project, essentially rebuilding the interchange of I-69 and I-465 on the northeast side of Indianapolis, is projected to be completed by the end of calendar year 2025. I have spoken with some local officials that are skeptical of that timeline, but let’s hope INDOT is correct and the mayhem to our south will end by the start of 2026.
