Lane Closures Scheduled SR 62 Border Bridge Near Mt. Vernon

POSEY COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation announces lane closures for the State Road 62 Wabash Memorial Bridge.

Beginning on Monday Oct. 15, crews will begin their biennial inspection of the bridge spanning the Wasbash River. This is a routine inspection, scheduled every two years, to insure all components of the bridge are working properly. During the inspection crews will look for normal signs of wear as well as any wear that could potentially pose a hazard to motorists.

Crews will bring the two-lane bridge down to one lane controlled by flaggers. The inspection is expected to take about five days depending upon weather conditions. Restrictions will be in place from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. local time.

INDOT urges drivers to slow down and stay alert near crews.
