(BARTHOLOMEW & BROWN COUNTIES) — Indiana Department of Transportation’s contractor for its $4.3 million resurfacing project on the 15-mile section of State Road 46 between Columbus and Nashville will have crews operational at three different locations by the end of next week.
Currently, Milestone workers are replacing a 1200-foot full-depth section of pavement at Tipton Lakes Boulevard west of Columbus--while a second crew is milling surface asphalt in S.R. 46's westbound lane. The milling operation began July 18 at C.R. 350W in Bartholomew County.
Next Thursday, July 26, paving crews are scheduled to start placing the asphalt surface on S.R. 46's westbound lane--lagging several days behind milling operations.
Just short of S.R. 135 at Nashville, S.R. 46 milling and paving operations will turn to the eastbound lane.
Motorists will be direct around moving worksites by flaggers.
S.R. 46's traffic count between I-65 and S.R. 135 is 9,070 vehicles per day.
