Allisonville Road Traffic Pattern
North of I-465 Shifting Tonight

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) contractors plan to shift traffic Thursday night on Allisonville Road on the north side of the closed bridge over I-465. 

Both directions of traffic on Allisonville Road between the I-465 ramps and 86^th Street will be shifted to share new pavement on the west side of the median in order to remove and replace existing pavement north of the bridge.

Traffic going southbound on Allisonville to enter westbound I-465 will remain on the west side of the road.  Traffic exiting westbound I-465 to northbound Allisonville will be shifted to new pavement on the exit ramp and directed to the west side of Allisonville Road, which will be restriped to allow both directions to share the pavement. 

Two lanes of westbound I-465 will be restricted for a short time between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. to allow crews to modify pavement markings at the base of the exit ramp to Allisonville Road.

Allisonville Road on the south side of the bridge, between the I-465 ramps and 82^nd Street, was shifted into this phase on Tuesday night.  This phase will be in place until Walsh, the state’s contractor for the $19 million bridge and interchange project, opens the new Allisonville Road bridge over I-465, which is expected in mid-September.  At that time, each direction of traffic on Allisonville Road will be directed to the normal side of the median.
