INDIANAPOLIS — Milestone Contractors plans to close the eastbound Interstate 70 (Exit 91) ramp to Post Road starting Fri., April 28 at 9 p.m. until Mon., May 1 at 6 a.m. for concrete paving and patching on the ramp.
During the weekend ramp closure, exiting traffic will be directed to continue eastbound to Mt. Comfort Road (Exit 96) and return westbound on I-70 to access Post Road.
All lanes of eastbound I-70 will remain shifted to the left between I-465 and Post Road as construction continues on the $2.3 million project to build an additional lane on eastbound Interstate 70 between I-465 and Post Road (Exit 91) on the east side of Indianapolis.
Eastbound I-70 traffic is scheduled to remain in this Phase 1 work zone configuration through mid-May. The added lane is intended to improve traffic flow and safety by increasing capacity and reducing unnecessary merging as traffic from I-465 enters eastbound I-70 and vehicles exit to Post Road.
Later this spring, the project will also make full-depth concrete repairs to eastbound and westbound I-70 pavement in the same area, as well as paint overpass bridges at Franklin Way and Emerson Avenue.
All work is expected to be complete before the end of this year.
