INDIANA – The Indiana Department of Transportation is celebrating the heartbeat of the I-69 Finish Line – the incredible people and partnerships that make it all possible.
“Together, we’re more than a project; we’re a community that supports one another. As we work toward our end goals, we thank every individual and partner involved.
To our community, thank you for your patience as we build the newest interstate in the nation. I-69 Finish Line is on track to open to traffic by the end of 2024. The finish line is in sight!”
Driving in Construction Zones
While winter weather persists, construction progress continues as we get closer to the Finish Line.
As a friendly reminder, please drive safely and stay alert, especially in construction zones. Distracted driving and speeding can lead to serious crashes that could otherwise be prevented if these simple yet impactful steps are taken behind the wheel. Put the phone down, reduce your speed, and drive safely.
Below is a list of construction-related activities happening on I-69 Finish Line this week:
Bridge Demolition
- The existing I-465 bridge structure above Meridian Street has been removed. Demolition work will continue on the bridge over the White River for the next couple of weeks. This work is not expected to impact traffic. Please slow down and stay focused while driving in and near this construction zone.
Overhead Sign Structures

Single and double-lane closures are scheduled for Monday, Jan. 29, through Wednesday, Jan. 31, between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. while work is in progress. Please be advised that this work is weather-dependent and may be delayed due to inclement weather.
