State Road 9 closure pushed back until April

A project that will close State Road 9 north of the Bartholomew County line has been delayed until next month.

Work was expected to start on the drainage structure replacement project on Monday

According to INDOT, the highway will now close about five miles north of the Bartholomew/Shelby County line starting on April 21st. It is expected to be closed for about 18 days but the work schedule is dependent on the weather.

INDOT urges you to slow down, to drive without distractions and to use extra caution for worker safety in all work zones.
