Long list of ongoing Fishers road construction projects

This is a trying time for Fishers motorists, but progress is being made on a number of fronts.

First, the 126th Street construction at State Road 37 saw a big change this past week – the right-in-right-out access moved from the east side of SR37 to the west side.  The roundabout intersection at 126th and underpass on SR37 is scheduled to be completed by November.

131st Street at the Nickel Plate Trail is closed to traffic through August 5th.  Once that is complete, 126th Street will close at Ford Drive, with reopening expected in September.

There are a number of other projects on main thoroughfares and in neighborhoods throughout the city.  The full listing, as provided by the City of Fishers, is below.
