INDIANAPOLIS — On or after April 16th, the Indianapolis Department of Public Works (DPW) will close a bridge on East 38th Street to begin replacement of the bridge deck. The 4-lane bridge spans over railroad tracks on East 38th Street east of North Arlington Avenue. The bridge was originally constructed in 1935 and was last rehabilitated in 1995.
The $4.5 million construction project is expected to reopen November 2019, as weather permits. Local traffic will be able to access residential and business areas until the bridge completely reopens.
During the construction, eastbound traffic can turn north on Arlington Avenue and then turn right on East 46th Street. Turn right onto Shadeland Avenue and continue until reaching East 38th Street.
