SHELBYVILLE/HOPE, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has announced that a portion of State Road 9 in southern Shelby County will be closed starting later this month.
On or after Monday, March 24, State Road 9 will be shut down for up to 18 days, through mid-April, between County Roads 750S. and 800S for a structure replacement project. The structure is located approximately five miles north of the Bartholomew/Shelby County line, between Hope and Shelbyville, at Amos Ditch.
The official detour will follow State Road 44, I-65, and State Road 252 while the work is progressing. Access will be maintained for local residents up to the point of closure.
Motorists should slow down, use caution, and avoid distractions when traveling in and near construction zones. All work is weather-dependent, and schedules are subject to change.
