Culvert work to close State Road 250

A 24-foot, three-sided concrete box culvert with wingwalls will be installed sometime after May 1 on State Road 250 at Crooked Creek in Marion Township in Jennings County. This will require closing State Road 250 for 45 days.

The culvert’s location is approximately 4½ miles east of Interstate 65 and 5¼ miles west of State Road 3. The work is part of a $542,408 bridge replacement project.

INDOT’s contract requires the contractor, which is Dave O’Mara, to reopen the east-west highway to traffic by Sept. 30. Crews are expected to be onsite in March to stake and clear the area for construction operations.
