Bridge inspection to snarl traffic into downtown Columbus

You will see traffic restrictions if you have to head into downtown Columbus on State Road 46 this week.

According to INDOT, crews will be inspecting the Robert N. Stewart bridge over East Fork White River starting today. The traffic will be reduced to two lanes on the bridge as crews work in the right lane at first and then move to the left lane. The work is expected to take up to four days. The work schedule is dependent on the weather.

INDOT reminds you to slow down, to drive without distractions and to be alert to worker safety in all work zones.
