ITR Concession Company LLC (ITRCC) is announcing several updates for the Northwest Indiana Bridge Rehabilitation Project.
Work has been completed on the 108th Street entrance ramp to I-90 east. It will reopen to traffic on August 26th-27th. Construction has also been completed on the exit 10 westbound exit ramp. It is scheduled to reopen on August 28th.
As we head into Labor Day on September 4th, all work on the project will be halted during the busy weekend of travel.
The next phase of construction will begin with single lane traffic in the eastbound lanes starting on September 6, 2023. Beginning September 8, 2023, westbound lanes will also be restricted to a single lane and use the crossover lane on the eastbound structure for travel. This shift and closure will occur at mile marker 1.
“ITRCC is pleased to report that the project continues to remain on schedule as we make great progress on improving this critical piece of infrastructure for the region,” says Rick Fedder, Chief Operating Officer of ITRCC.
