Indianapolis traffic: Ramp and lane closures coming this week on southeast side
Between May 12-15 drivers can expect overnight lane and ramp restrictions for I-65. The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) said crews will be working on shoulder strengthening progresses on the I-65 Safety and Efficiency corridor on the southeast side.
Here are the following overnight lane and ramp closures near the I-465 interchange and Keystone Avenue for drivers:
Monday, May 12, and Tuesday, May 13, from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Wednesday, May 14, and Thursday, May 15, from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.
INDOT said closures are weather-dependent and subject to change. Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and use alternate routes when possible. I-65 will have four travel lanes in each direction between I-465 and I-70 when the project concludes in late 2026.
Reminder: Keystone Avenue Ramp ClosureThe exit ramp from northbound I-65 to Keystone Avenue is scheduled to close on or after Saturday, May 17, and remain closed through late August. Drivers should slow down, allow extra travel time, and be aware of changing traffic patterns. Follow posted signs and pavement markings to navigate the corridor safely.
Construction Speed Limit Now Active The construction zone speed limit is now active on I-65. A reduced speed of 45 mph is in place for the duration of I-65 Safety and Efficiency work. Drivers need to slow down and avoid distractions in work zones.
