GIBSON COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation announces lane restrictions for the U.S. 41 north of Princeton for a bridge rehab project.

Beginning on or around Monday, May 17, contractors will close one lane of the U.S. 41 bridges spanning the Patoka River just north of State Road 64 for rehabilitation. During this project crews will perform scheduled maintenance on the bridge deck and apply a new driving surface.

During the project, one lane will be open in each direction while work takes place in the closed lanes. Once work is completed in the closed lanes, the closure will shift to the previously open lanes.The project is scheduled to last until mid-June depending upon weather conditions.

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