Due to construction and congestion, traffic should avoid the area if possible and seek an alternate route. If you are in that area, be patient, cautious, and aware of heavy equipment and workers.
If possible, semis should avoid the area and seek an alternate route unless they travel to Mullis Petroleum, Standish Feed Store, Indiana Steel, Fortner Pest Control or Metal Source, formerly Bedford Recycling.
