INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is alerting motorists to changing traffic patterns on the southwest side of Indianapolis this weekend as I-69 Finish Line crews move eastbound lanes of I-465 to new pavement.
Beginning Friday, December 15, at 9 p.m., eastbound I-465 will be reduced to one lane between I-70 and US 31, with lanes reopening by 5 a.m. on Monday, December 18. All three westbound lanes will remain open this weekend.
During the lane restrictions, INDOT says the speed limit on both eastbound and westbound I-465 will remain at 45 mph. Once the traffic shift is complete on Monday morning, drivers will travel on new pavement.
Various ramps will also close on Friday, Dec. 15, at 9 p.m. and reopen by 5 a.m. Monday, Dec. 18:
