INDOT to close State Road 58 for culvert replacement

BARTHOLOMEW COUNTY — Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Force Construction Co. is scheduled to close State Road 58 approximately 2.3 miles north of Waymansville on or after Monday, Sept. 9, to complete a culvert replacement project in Bartholomew County.

The closure will take place just south of West County Road 700S and is expected to take up to 30 days, weather permitting. Crews will begin to place signage in the area prior to the start of construction. During the closure, motorists should use the official detour route which follows I-65 to Exit 55 (State Road 11), to State Road 258 back to State Road 58.

This project is part of a $4.5 million contract awarded to Force Construction in May 2023. INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, use extra caution and avoid distractions when traveling in and near work zones. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
