INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced lane restrictions and a ramp closure is coming to the west side of Indianapolis.

Starting Thursday, Aug. 24 at 9 p.m., INDOT will begin shifting Interstate 465 southbound traffic to the right near the bridge over U.S. Highway 136. 

The following day at 7 p.m., INDOT will then restrict southbound I-465 traffic to three lanes before closing the I-74 eastbound ramp onto I-465 northbound

INDOT said the ramp closure and lane restrictions will allow crews to complete a thin deck overlay. 

The closure is not expected to last long. According to INDOT, it expects the work to be completed and all lanes and ramp reopened by Monday, Aug. 28 at 6 a.m., weather permitting.

Motorists should plan ahead, and INDOT reminds drivers to slow down in construction zones.
